Is there any way to have sequencing done anonymously? I would love to get the data, but I'm not crazy about multiple corporations and/or governments having a copy of my DNA forever, to do with as they like (privacy policies and such notwithstanding).

Edit: Ah, it appears that anonymously handing over your DNA may not even be possible: http://www.technologyreview.com/news/509901/study-highlights...

Your edit touches on this but a SNP panel, much less an exom or God help you a genome is hardly anonymous
