I wasn't thinking sequencing but rather comparison. Could even hash data for comparison to enforce privacy (unsure how effective that would be)

But this could enable things like finding relatives which is what I got out of the comment about 23andme. Instead of all the data being centralized, storage and comparison could be distributed



Ah, thanks for clarifying. I misunderstood the main idea behind your comment.
