There are only 7 billion people on the planet. There can, at most, if everybody lives like Bangladeshis, be 80 billion people on the planet. 128 bits is 3x10^38th, more than enough resolution to assign a DNA-based hash to EVERY unique DNA strand with no collisions.
Machines take me by surprise with great frequency.

CID? (Score:2)
Why would anybody bother with a CID or even fMRI when a DNA scan-and-hash will identify you to 128 bits of certainty?
