Shipping killed it for me. Makes it the same price at Amazon but I get 5% cash back there with prime card.

I've been very hesitant to use one of these services. It's not only revealing my genetic information to a company, but information about all of my blood relatives... Seems fraught with risks. I wouldn't voluntarily give the police my DNA, but that's essentially what happens with at least some of these companies. And knowing how often data leaks happen, I would expect that eventually all of this information will be publicly available.

If you have had your DNA run by any of these companies, your data is in CODIS. And if you have the gene that cures cancer or eternal life you have no patient rights to it. But that being said, it's probably not an issue for 99.9% of the people out there

And I'm assuming centuries from now, when all of humanity is long gone because of war and Covid-69, aliens will resurrect us with found servers.

You shouldn't be doing this even if they pay you $100. The terms of service allow them to sell the data to anyone they like, and once sold there is no control of it.

Thanks for the post OP. For me, it IS cheaper on the 23andme site even with $9.95 shipping. Final OTD cost was $65 on Amazon and $55 on 23andme.

A century from now would be Covid-21.

How did that work if the kit is $49.99 plus $9.95 shipping = $55? Confused

Amazon wants to charge me tax. Sure they may not once it ships but I'm not going to risk it. I'll get it directly from 23andme. Amazon is smart enough they should show the final price.
