To be clear, this is California’s attorney general, not the US’; If you, like me, were surprised that this administration was going something even remotely pro-consumer.

I still cannot read the word ‘magma’ in anything other than Dr Evil’s voice, as portrayed by Mike Myers.
Due to the trove of sensitive consumer data 23andMe has amassed, Attorney General Bonta reminds Californians of their right to direct the deletion of their genetic data under the Genetic Information Privacy Act (GIPA) and California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA). Californians who want to invoke these rights can do so by going to 23andMe's website.
TL;DR unless you live in California and delete your data, it will soon be in the russian army psyops database.
