Should an adopted adult have the same rights to identifying information about his or her origins as all non-adopted adults?

I’m not sure.

I do believe that an adopted adult should have access to family medical records in case they have some problems that are hereditary.

However I also believe that the birth parents also have the right to privacy if they do not want to be contacted. Also the adopted child should have privacy if they do not want to be contacted.
