Well I expected that you actually be less of a paranoid and make your 
own conclusions from reading about what the WCG is on their web site, 
YouTube (what people say about it) or Google it if you must, but I think 
I expected too much.

As I wrote, the database will bee open & free but any drug/treatment 
will have to be sold because nobody is gonna give money to the 
researchers just because they do a good thing for Humanity, they have to 
sell a product to be able to brig food to their families as everybody 
does, so maybe they'll have to make some kind of patent about it but 
anyway the resulting drug/treatment will cost much less that if they had 
to do all the effort on their own.

One more time this is Humanity helping Humanity under legal rules, 
nobody is cheating here. But there are people that sees a hoax in 
everything because that's the way they see the world of have had bad 
experiences or their environment is that way, but this effort is as 
innocent as it can be, 400,000+ people worldwide think so and we are 
betting on it. Even scientist sometimes post on the WCG Forum, for 
example I recently read a post from a scientist at Scripps Institute 
(FightAIDS@Home, maker of Autodock used in FightAIDS@Home and other WCG 
projects too) and it was reassuring to see how they're so exited and 
motivated about the FightAIDS@Home and WCG in general but if you don't 
calm down you'll always have a pretext to see bad intention were there 
isn't one and avoid doing good. At some point in life you have to bet on 
something and risk trusting; you don't have to be successful on it all 
the time, you think and act intelligently and expect the best, believe 
in something and do your best effort to achieve it like anything in 
life, sometimes you win sometimes you loose, but that's life.
