    Stakeholders that want a payout will demand the data be sold to the highest bidder.

    And other companies will probably be interested in said data and willing to buy.

    I would like for it to be destroyed as well, but capitalism going to capitalism.

      You’re right. And IMO they should be legally banned from doing so - because the people who signed up for this crap agreed with 23 and Me’s ToS, not with someone else’s.

      But, well… as you said, capitalism going to capitalism. The “right thing to do” is often out of the table of options.
