Hey and that's cool but you can't make that call for other people. That's the whole thing about consent and why it's important.

But the question was express consent. I'm willing to trust 23andme to pass the data to whatever research team has the resources to make progress (that was certainly my intent, at least, in signing over consent to them in the first place; I don't know enough about medical research to have an opinion on the details of who does the work, and I delegate that responsibility to 23andme).
