  I am aware of this, but with little information it is possible to identify people. It was more about the: oh we share only half with our parents. Who can figure it out?

  There is a good reason to keep this data access restricted. With little sensitive data, you are an open book.

  Well, for a geneticists it is „easy“. In this paper which is a little older they just look at the Y-Chromosome and the last name, something men share with their fathers, and public accessible data (at the time). The pedigree is resolvable. Link

  Therefore it is important, that this data is access restricted. For this we have EGA

  So using for profit services like MyHeritage is risky and stored on servers you might not want your data on.

  Enjoy the show. In the last two years, I was at 2 shows where a male companion and me were the oldest. And one show we were only beaten by boring parents which waited in the bar area instead of listening to a great show (imagine grumpy older Gen X being on their phones the entire time). It felt weird at first. Teens and young adults all around me. Every teen had so much swag and I needed Vexillology lesson because there were so many queer flags and didn’t know existed. The shows were nice (Tessa Violet and Cavetown) and I had a great time. Everything was calm, the bar always free, I guess because money is a lot tighter when you are young. If people notice you they’ll think you are a cool dude cause you enjoy good music.
