If the samples are truly de-identified, I don't have a big problem with it. At that point it's just a large database of DNA sequences. It could be used to track the incidence of genetic mutations over time, but couldn't be used to correlate with things like individual susceptibility to disease, or individual school performance, etc. It could, however, be used to correlate many things with ancestral origins etc.

As to the issue of non identifiable there is no such thing, this is the premise of all of the DNA services is to match th individual to others. As the sample base grows the precision of matching “blind” samples grown narrower.
Last, what was the purpose of sampling all newborns in the first place, I do not trust them one second that the samples and the source are not connected
