Would you let government collect DNA from people when they are born? Absolutely not, but I will definitely give it to a silicon valley start up who will then proceed to sell it and have it stolen.
I can very easily imagine a 23 year old liberal virgin technocratic atheist saying that DNA should be collected at birth to solve crimes. These are also the same people who likely support euthanizing disabled people if they "consent" to it.
Liberal? The "personal freedom from government" folks? I think you're thinking of someone who is pro authoritarian. I could 100% see a tankie, fascist, or right-wing authoritarian agreeing with that.
Liberal as in American liberal.
