    As someone of almost entirely Ashkenazi heritage, all I can say is I’m glad I never used 23andMe, but I’m scared for a lot of my fellows.

      As someone who is 50% Ashkenazi and on 23andMe, I’m not super happy

      My partner is Jewish and used the service to learn more about her ancestry. This sucks.

      Is it just me or does it seem it’s a really bad idea to buy into any product that involves accumulating PII? I’m old enough to have noticed that in nearly every instance that data is either misused, stolen, or used as intended for a really shitty purpose.
