If it were just convicts, that's an invasion of privacy and I think the data should be purged once that individual returns to society. That said, I can only be so sympathetic with criminals. If they're really sampling the DNA from all newborns, then it's terrible beyond imagining.
How would someone's grandchildren feel about being held in suspicion, or blacklisted from certain jobs, because of what their ancestors did? Don't tell me it won't happen. I would be surprised if it didn't. Hell, we already do it just based on "history."
