We should all be terrified to live in an America where legal residents can be detained, held at gunpoint, or deported because of the color of their skin or because the President disagrees with their views.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

If you are a healthcare provider who encouraged patients to use 23andMe to provide analysis of genetic data--you should contact all of those patients immediately and help them protect their privacy as best they can.
23andMe collected incredibly sensitive genetic data from millions of Americans, and their inability to protect that data irreparably harmed their business. Regardless of this bankruptcy filing, they need to honor their promises to protect consumer privacy and the security of the data they maintain.

Do not forget where you came from
Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.
Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.
Do not.
