23andMe just sent out an email trying to trick customers into accepting a TOS change that will prevent you from suing them after they literally lost your genome ro thieves.

Do what it says in the email and email arbitrationoptout@23andme.com that you do not agree with the new terms of service and opt out of arbitration.

If you have an account with them, do this right now.

Here’s an email template for what to write: https://www.patreon.com/posts/94164861

      Even though it’s 25%, they will still calculate it as a risk.

          I’ll have to get the name of the specific murder porn show from my wife, but there’s one where they go into detail about how they find a suspect with DNA by finding people with a close enough match to narrow down the family tree and get super close to the actual person, if not the exact person.
