Wow, I had just assumed that life insurance was included in all of the genetic discrimination laws that were passed after the Human Genome Project got underway. It looks like Australia was ahead of the curve by passing legislation in 1992 (for comparison, the US passed GINA in 2008), but it's very odd to me that both of those laws excluded life insurance. I understand that insurance companies need to be able to mitigate risk, but it's a huge "fuck you" to anyone born with risky genes. It might result in slightly higher premiums for everyone, but it's a good move imo.
