It's the same thing they add to our drinking water except it is below
sensory threshold.

Some of us filter it out after it has done it's duty.

Even below sensory threshold, which is not always true in the case of
drinking water, I don't drink it. There are some theories and articles
floating about that claim dermal absorption of chlorine is a not good
thing, even at low levels.

Thus having said this, hypochlorites are good disinfectants and degrade
rapidly and are good to keep on hand, both in liquid (sodium) and
granular (calcium) form in case of emergencies.
