You can get my entire DNA data, https://my.pgp-hms.org/profile/hu80855C
I can assure you I know more than a little about security, considered all the reasonable risks, and concluded that it's not really increasing my risk and is unlikely to do so any time in the future.
If that's really you, I give you a lot of credit for being bold. You and the CEO of LifeLock both. Hopefully your confidence doesn't blow up in your face the way his did, but when/if it does, you'll probably never know why it's happening to you exactly. The easier it is to link that data to your identity the riskier it'd be. I haven't seen the 23andme data, but if it includes names, addresses, email addresses, family members, etc they're going to be a lot worse off than you likely are.
My real name is David Konerding, so the linkage now is trivial. Again, I've evaluated the risk profile associated with my genome data and concluded that it's effectively non-existent, and will continue to be so.
My data isn't 23andme- it's a whole genome. 23andme's data collection is very limited, and in my experience, fairly optimistic about its predictive ability for health.
I don't have the expertise to quickly mine your genome for the juicy bits, so I'll have to trust that you've seen what's there and still couldn't see how any of that information could ever be used to prejudice someone against you, or reveal anything that could be exploited either today, or at any point in the future.
It's a bold position, especially given that we're still discovering what many of our genes signify. While I do worry that it may rise to the level of hubris in this case, I really have to admire your confidence all the same. I genuinely hope that your assessment of your risk is proven accurate with time and that your contribution to the Personal Genome Project never comes back to haunt you.
