I'm concerned about the privacy implications of DNA testing services like 23andMe or AncestryDNA. What are the potential risks of sharing our genetic data with those companies, and are there any privacy-focused alternatives available?

    In the US, insurance companies cannot discriminate based on your genetic data, contrary to what many people in the comments are saying.
