A lot of these large population datasets are not obtained with consent for this sort of research and part of the ethical oversight is to ensure that harm to the subjects is minimized.
Now, you might ask yourself whether anyone or what sort of people are going to consent to participating in a research study that is designed to discover racial or other superiority/inferiority.
But it really doesn't matter when you skip over informed consent to build genetic databases.
Just because the genetic database exists it doesn't follow that any uses are ethical or were consented to by the "participants".
