There are several reasons I never used 23andMe, one being that I live in the US and wouldn’t want to risk the data getting leaked to health insurance companies.
Now just hope your family was as smart too...
Template in case anyone wants to use it:
To: arbitrationoptout@23andme.com, legal@23andme.com
Subject: Opt-out TOS
I am writing to opt out of the new terms of service that were recently announced. I have carefully reviewed the changes, and I am exercising my right to decline the forced arbitration and class action waiver. As per the instructions, I understand that I need to send a written notice of my decision to opt out to arbitrationoptout@23andme.com or legal@23andme.com. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and request confirmation of my opt-out status once it has been processed.
