I’d love to know all of that. I just don’t ever trust a private corporation to safeguard my highly personal and unique DNA information from:
a foreign scammer looking to make a buck
my government looking to close a case
a foreign government looking for kompromat
a health care company looking for reasons to deny coverage.
It’s too easy for a company to skimp on staff and digital security and then say “we’re soooo sowwwy, have 3 months of identity fraud protection on us” if they find a breach.
