Google is cooperating with the leading molecular scientist Dr. Craig Venter, who profoundly participated in the decoding of the human genome. Google is able to contribute enormous computing power as well as the required data storage for this work - more, than the government could ever provide. Dr. Craig Venter claims that Google could soon start a service anybody would be able to check his own hereditary faults and disease. This way, Google even gets an insight in its own users genes...

I think google is going a little too far by making this info public. DNA should be of greater secrecy than social security info. It's the doorway to us, specifically. The only DNA identical to my own would by my twins; even a clone of mine's isn't identical. That's just wrong, dude. If the DNA is easily available to people who need it, like doctors and other of similar fields, fine...but I'm not letting some identity thief gank my DNA code for their own aims. -This does seem like something foul with the world the way it is. Maybe if we lived in a utopian society.

Awesome. Any step closer to a kind of world seen only in cyberpunk novels is a great step to me.

Judging from what I've seen from the majority of internet users, I don't like the concept of them having acess to my genetic information.

Honestly, this is an amazing thing they are doing! If enough people around the world added to this project, it would result in so many discoveries!
