The advantage given by this definition of nonidentifiable is obvious. If high standards of anonymization can be created and strictly enforced in the biobanking community then the need to invoke informed consent for either retrospective or prospective biobanking can be eliminated. If researchers are required to hand all data to trusted third parties that, following international standards, can encrypt, anonymize, and link them, then biobanking can be put on a firm, universal, and practical ethical foundation.

It may be a convenient fiction but it is, nonetheless, a fiction.

Surprisingly, consent is not all that much better as a principle to protect the autonomy and privacy of those involved in prospective biobanking.
