I have had my DNA test and do find the results a bit disappointing. I am 69% "Great Britain" and 21% European West. I was hoping to find out more detail about my ethnicity - if some of my ancestors were Celts, Anglo-Saxon, Viking (Danish) or whatever.

Ancestry couldn't find 10 per cent of my DNA??? They did very well with the 90 percent identified. Will it be found later?

All well and good. We are told that we should have a DNA profile to find where we come from, BUT who else has access to the results? When are the authorities going to demand copies of the results? That way a person doesn't have to be even suspected of committing a crime for the authorities to take a DNA sample. Who will guarantee that the authorities will not be given access and what recourse do we have if they are supplied?
