tl;dr: Folks want to use ancestry to see where and how it goes. What do they need to know? Is there anything to avoid?

I’m not wild on the idea of submitting DNA swabs for a lot of reasons, the recent issues with genealogy.com’s data being a great example. What of tracing family tree by liniage?

    Yeah this will populate information about DNA and genomes from you and relatives into their database.

    This can be an issue for the following reasons:

    • you will give up your privacy to a very substantial degree
    • there’s a small chance you will give up safety of you or your relatives because investigators can access your DNA now
