AG Bonta reminds 23andMe customers of right to delete data
AG Bonta reminds 23andMe customers of right to delete data:
California Attorney General Rob Bonta issued a consumer alert Friday urgently warning the public that 23andMe is in financial distress and instructing customers on how to delete their data.
That’s good enough for me. I used 23andMe when it launched and love the promise of gaining medical insights from my own genetic data. That’s a powerful vision I still support. But given the lack of federal privacy protections on this most sensitive and personal of all data, I’d rather delete it than let some creep buy it in a fire sale.
