Anyway here’s a piece on what’s going on with 23andMe. If you did it, I would strongly recommend deleting your data now (though that may not work). If you didn’t, don’t do it. It’s not worth becoming uninsurable. There are better ways to find meaning in your life. www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

The company is in trouble, and anyone who has spit into one of the company’s test tubes should be concerned.

LinkedIn has now added the UK to the list of regions where they are not enabling training for generative AI on member data. Members in these countries (EEA/Swirzerland) will not see the opt-out
