No what it means is that a company can not own your dna like they were trying to.

A company had patented the "breast cancer" gene because they found it. So the charge for the test screening was over thousands of dollars instead of the hundred or so dollars normal screening tests run.

You own your DNA, companies do not, now that is law.

Yours was up first so think it should be the main one.

And my view of this case: it was a catch-22 case. No matter who won, we lose.

One side we can't protect our DNA (they can collect, slightly change, and patent, still, but more than that, we can't claim exclusive rights to our own DNA), the other side, people would claim your DNA before you did (like web squatters) making you under their control. What needs to be done is protection, one which recognizes the real problems, not cases which will give win away from us.

True this ruling does not give us the protections we need, but it keeps companies and others from staking a claim.

Yes, though then it is not the gene that they are trying to patent, so they would not be able to patent the natural gene.

Thanks for the information. Corporations had applied for patents on about 20% of human DNA along with patents on DNA occurring in nature in an attempt to stifle the use of natural remedies.
