This talk[0] makes a very good case for why keeping your DNA a secret is a good idea. It's also probably the only talk at defcon that I've watched that has scared the hell out of me.

That is a great talk! Thank you for posting it. This is the caliber of counterargument that I was looking for. I had addressed in my post ("maybe ... somebody figures out a way to target me directly with a personalized disease"). I have added a link to it in my post.
