23andMe User Data Stolen in Targeted Attack on Ashkenazi Jews

Hi All

 

When you see the headlines and see statements stating that at least a million data points from an organisation such as 23andMe have been exposed, are we becoming more used to this type of situation or becoming more immune to such articles unless it affects us personally?

Anyone doing Ancestry chasing, then the warnings are clear and potent - can DNA databases and labs be trusted to protect individuals?
