It sounds like it's literally just catching hairs and things like that, though. We already knew we leave DNA samples everywhere, so that's not more scary than DNA analysis already was.
I think when this tech is matured it will just another standard procedure, but from the current state of forensics it's pretty wild to think about regardless. It's kind of scary, but it also kind of feels like organic progression.
