I never fell for it. I hope none of my siblings did, either.
I would have thought that data would be worth more. Maybe the AI guys will just steal it, instead?

If we believe 23 and me, they have only recieved 11 data requests for 15 accounts and provided zero data to law enforcement.

That is a report on formal law enforcement requests for direct account information. Law enforcement is known to use genetic ancestry, so either they are using other sites or just running the tests themselves instead of doing a formal request.
I couldn’t find a case for suing companies, just defense requests to dismiss using the data in court but I might not be using the right search terms.
Yes but what about the times law enforcement sent in the DNA and found relatives. Three are stories of that happening if I remember correctly.
What about the thing I said?
