"8. Anonymous sperm and egg donors could become a thing of the past."
As someone conceived with donor gametes who used Ancestry/23andme to find and build a relationship with my biological father - this is a WONDERFUL thing.
Depriving people of their genetic history is a terrible byproduct of the multi-billion-dollar fertility industry, and I personally know hundreds of people that have been terribly hurt by the pain caused by anonymous donations.
Only thing to correct - anonymous donations very much now ARE a thing of the past, not "could be." Any fertility clinic promising anonymity is knowingly lying to prospective donors and/or recipient parents.
