If you have genetic markers for various diseases present in your genome potential employers, insurance companies etc. could use this information—most likely for their benefit rather than for the benefit of the individual so I’d class this as a big potential risk that should be considered.
Some other risks/benefits based on perspective:
Your genome matches with something on a criminal database for a crime you’ve committed in the past and you get caught.
Your genome leads to a partial match on a criminal database for crime committed by a blood relative. They get caught
You happen to be a good genetic match for someone who needs body parts and isn’t adverse to using yours without asking permission.
Publicly available and identifiable as you?
