Have 23andMe been sold?
« on: Monday 30 September 24 22:58 BST (UK) »
Apologies if this has already been covered (I did check but didn’t get any results) but it looks like 23andMe have been in trouble for a while, and may be sold.

If anyone has taken a 23andMe DNA test it might be an idea to check to see how this might impact you.

I would expect 23andMe to have contacted everyone who has tested with them, but I thought I would mention this in case they haven’t.

There seem to be a few reports about this online including:

Please check for yourselves and make your own decisions regarding your personal information.

Thanks for the heads up, Ruskie.

I deleted/removed all my information when they had the problems last year.

I  downloaded all relevant info beforehand.
