This is true, and companies never mis-represent or break their own privacy guidelines. I seem to recall many years ago AT&T and others denying they were assisting the .GOV in collecting phone data.

Marketing to general population wise FtDNA is probably on the lower tier of the totem pole, it's just blaaaaah in comparison to AncestryDNA, it's just not fun. So FtDNA must generate income by other means and that might mean partnering with the Feds.

As this DNA collection stuff continues to evolve there is going to be a lot good and bad. A few of the negatives will be government intrusion, DNA based insurance, DNA base reperations and male neutering. One of the major positives could be preventative medicine.
