I hope you aren't an Ashkenazi Jew.
Yeah I saw when that happened. I don't do the open sharing. But it is easy to identify me as a Jew plenty of other ways. Including online with things attached to my real name. So it is what it is.
If problems arise, you can always ditch your name but not your DNA. Obviously, those are worst case scenarios but I'm personally worried about DNA being used by insurance companies, being coupled to credit scores, used for higher education admittance, etc
