The agreement does pretty much state you can't use this for anything useful.
As someone who regularly investigates whole genomes I would love to use this as a tool on novel mutations. These folks are the edge cases no one else could figure out that I get a crack at. Beyond the DNA we have the symptoms and lab work and I can usually narrow it down to a handful of guesses, but it sure would be nice to use this to help rank where to invest efforts.
For now i'll treat it as just another fun Google project that might come out of beta one day (or not).
