- igetspam 7y agoI've tried. So very hard. And I failed. People, like my siblings and mother, see this as a game. They see no problem with giving a private company access to their most uniquely identifying information. They'd likely hand over their fingerprints and retina scans for a free photo of themselves doing it. My mother shreds every piece of mail but jumped on 23andme without hesitation. The world has become dumber and less concerned with personal information than some weird shared social experience. I'm not worried about the feds getting my data (ish) as much as I am about Bad Actors in the future. (I still very much want the government out of my business and personal life though.)
