Story: Google accused of bio-piracy

I don't see how this can be a bad thing. Its not like they are going to list your name and your genetic makeup. People are not going to be able to Google you name and clone you. This is another example about people freaking out about anything that mentions genectics. I think they trying to open up genetic research to help be and share information, unlike companies you try and patent every gene they identify. What would you rather have, a private company holding all of the genetic information, stifiling research,, or an open database that allows anyone to do research.
