Sure. Let's rush to using them right after the fbi wanted to buy their database, they publicly say no then a week later everything is leaked.

For those that don't know, 23 and me is heading into bankruptcy. Previously, they promised to never sell your data/protect your privacy, etc. Their stock has tumbled and being so close to insolvency they are seeking to sell the company to private investors and remove themselves from the stock market. That means whoever wants to buy them will have access to not just the raw DNA data, but every customer account linked to that data.

To put it bluntly, you'd be a fool to buy this now. The board of directors have resigned due to disagreements with the CEO, and most news outlets are putting out PSAs with information on how to request 23andMe delete your data and account.
