The body donation industry is unregulated. There was a whole series of articles about it. They use deliberately misleading language in their contracts so that most people have no idea that their loved one's body may be sold to the military. It's really messed up.
The guy in this story specifically marked "No" when asked to consent to military testing and the company sold her body anyway. He, along with other families, sued and won $58 million.
