That's a kit for sample collection. You would then ship off your sample to the company in question, and they would do the actual sequencing, and then send the DNA data and genetic variants they've inferred back to you. I think that defeats what the article author is trying to accomplish, since you still share your entire genome with a third party.
The actual instruments used by that company are a whole lot more expensive, and you have to buy reagents as well: https://www.machinio.com/illumina/dna-sequencers
