Are you actually condoning this practice? Speeding is a choice, one that's extremely easy to change, and it ultimately an exceedingly trivial matter. You are born with your genetics, and you can’t change them. You are them. They will

Right now, yes. But early in 23andMe's history (I got it done at the very beginning) they were pretty much the only game in town. They were the first to make such a service widely accessible to the public, and they helped establish the

You make the tools, what people do with them isn't up to you. I can tolerate some form of that opinion/argument on some level, but it is at the very least short-sighted on your part to not have been better-equipped for how to resp
