- KennyBlanken 7mo agoI remember warning everyone I knew that 23andme was about to go bankrupt and this would almost certainly mean all their data being sold to anyone they could. I was dismissed. "The privacy policy doesn't allow it" Peeps: privacy policies are not binding agreements, and even if they were, it always allows a corporation to sell your data. Always. No matter what it says today, because literally tomorrow they can change it to whatever they want.
- cromka 7mo agoDidn't this actually not happen at the end of the day?
- deinonychus 7mo agothis story is about 23andme selling dna data to 23andme
- selcuka 7mo agoNo, they are different entities. Having the same founder does not mean much in this context. You signed a contract with 23andme, not Regeneron Pharmaceuticals.
