The
Federal Trade Commission issued a striking
holiday missive last year: If you're thinking of buying an at - home DNA testing kit, make sure to consider the privacy implications: «Although
most tests require just a swab of the cheek,» the agency wrote, «that tiny sample can disclose the biological building blocks of what makes you you.»
While
most Federal offices are closed every Sunday, they will also close on
holidays like Christmas, on whichever day of the week it occurs.
