23&Me has filed for bankruptcy.
The company has been rejecting any buyout attempts, but their Board of Directors is now saying that a Court-supervised sale is the best path forward. Part of the reason for their financial troubles was a 2023 #DataBreach that affected millions of customers and hurt their credibility in the marketplace.
Yesterday, California's A.G. reminded consumers that they have the right to demand their data be deleted and that 23&Me destroy any genetic samples. (I would add that you also have the option of downloading your #DNA data and then uploading it to #GedMatch .)
