Firms such as 23&ME are collecting DNA information for entities who create designer plagues for the purpose of killing off specific ethnic groups. Yes, it's a war.
And people happily hand over their DNA for funsies.
23&ME is getting super fishy. They “lost” 6 million people’s genetic and ID data in a “hack” and just had a legal class action settlement for 30 mil (pittance). The board resigned IIRC, and I’m betting that the class action loss for their “negligence/mishandling” is cover for the “new investors” to come in with what’s actually the purchase price for that data…
