This kind of science leaves me with lots and lots of questions.

E.g.: As our understanding of DNA progresses, and we link more and more of it to different traits, will we eventually get into a situation where a swab on the water glass tells potential employer much more than the interview?

Or: imagine that in addition to the discovery "viral DNA in the human genome linked to major psychiatric disorders" there's a discovery that "this viral DNA is much more prevalent in [a certain population]". What will be the consequences of this?
