As you may know, 23andMe collects and holds sensitive, immutable, identifiable personal information about millions of American consumers who have used the Company's genetic testing and telehealth services.

Whoever buys 23andMe should be required to keep customer data private, according to the US Federal Trade Commission. The FTC weighed in on 23andMe’s sale today, a week after the DNA testing company filed for bankruptcy.
