I think my frustration with the people willing to send their data is that there's the "ideal world" where sequencing your DNA shouldn't lead to things like your government or insurance provider using your genetics against you.

And I'm frustrated because I haven't trusted my government or these companies to be responsible with that data even before it was glaringly obvious they wouldn't. So now here we are in the "I told you so" phase, and it just sucks how much of this data is already out there, ripe for misuse. And now it's just too late.
