Regeneron is to pay $256 million in cash to acquire “substantially all” of 23andMe’s assets, including its massive biobank of around 15 million customer genetic samples and data.

yeah its too late now… a few weeks ago they were running the story on the news every day telling people to go delete their data but who knows who it was already sold to or where they’ve backed stuff up and didn’t tell anyone… regulations be damned
I’ll believe anything is truly deleted when I die. Until then I’m not taking any company at their word.
Never forget. These assholes. The ones in fuckin’ charge right now. The very same neolibs and tech people you see in the headlines. Most of them are still around. These are the same assholes that turned the internet into a nazi incubator in their attempts to monetize it.
You know that old philosophy joke that goes “if by pushing a button you got a million bucks but a person at random (not you) suddenly dies - would you press the button?”
Imagine instead a machine where every time you pressed it you got money but out in the world it converted a random person (not you) into a nazi. Would you push the button?
And for the finance ghouls and neolib goblins and techbros they’d push that button until the horde of freshly minted fascists physically dragged them from the control panel.
And we know this because that’s exactly what they did to the internet. In fact they are still hitting that button! Frantically! And some of the techbros hitting the nazi button are nazis themselves.
So yeah not trusting anything they say about data
