I’ll put this in as a comment rather than answer as I do not know these are actual risks, or might become risks.
With your genome publicly available I suspect you might currently face a risk of being a prime suspect in a crime if it involved anyone you knew fairly well. If the DNA found at the scene—and there will be a bunch that can be found—is then found on some searchable DB you get tied to the scene perhaps a bit more readily.
If your DNA is the only DNA they can match I suspect you might move to the top of the list.
How serious one thinks this might be likely depends on one’s faith in law enforcement’s interests in getting the truth rather than getting a win. Additionally, some might have concerns here based on race or ethnicity, sad to say.
