Reports like this make the novel "Rainbow Six" seem like it is prophecy. You know there are people out there who would love to have a world-killing virus release, for which only they have the vaccine. All the human DNA being collected via the "ancestry" sites could very well be used to develop a virus that only targets certain nationalities/ethnicities. A nation ruled by Godless people, like China, would think nothing of releasing a virus that only kills non-Chinese; they could then just spread out into the world after every other country is decimated by such a virus.
