My purported ancestry initially included traces 1-3% North African and European Jewish
Recently the new and improved data eliminated both of those.
Just sayin
Recently the new and improved data eliminated both of those.
My “new and improved” data dropped my Southern Europe roots (namely, Italy), rolling that percentage into France / Germanic Europe.
Thing is, my Grandpa was 100% Italian. So were his parents... so, yeah... I thought my initial result was right on target, but now that they’ve “improved” it, it seems wrong.
Obviously, it’s SOOOOO imprecise that I don’t know how you could go back and say with any kind of certainty that someone 10 generations back is 1/1000th American Indian.
Yes, mine did the same. I had 8% Jewish, Native American 30%, East Asian 1%, etc... Now, they have all disappeared.
The "new and improved" is neither. 23 & Me has now minimized, masked, or eliminated data that previously showed individuals as being Ashkenazi Jewish. There is such as thing as Ashkenazi genetics.
Since 23 & Me is owned by the wife of a Left wing Google executive, I suspect that they are doing this to appease their Muslim allies.
