23andMe just sent out an email trying to trick customers into accepting a TOS change that will prevent you from suing them after they literally lost your genome ro thieves.

Do what it says in the email and email [email protected] that you do not agree with the new terms of service and opt out of arbitration.

If you have an account with them, do this right now.

Apparently my comment making fun of white supremacists wasn't taken well by the mods.

Either it went over people's heads or hit too close to home. I dunno.

Maybe the joke just wasn't funny

It was just another cynical explanation for the type of person to get a vanity dna test. Do people not realize that racial supremacists are getting these test and bragging if they like the results?
