Yksi lakimuutos voisi auttaa paljastamaan tuntemattomat murhaajat – haluaisiko poliisi sen?

Ruotsissa geneettinen sukututkimus johdatti poliisin kaksoismurhaajan jäljille. Suomessa asiasta ei ole virellä lakihanketta.

⚠️ Genetic privacy alert: 23andMe’s bankruptcy puts your DNA data at risk 🔬📉

With user data now part of potential asset sales, EFF is urging all customers to act now:

🧬 Download your data — store it securely for personal use
🗑️ Delete your account + data — this includes reports, raw data, and family tree connections
❌ Revoke research consent — and explicitly request sample destruction

Why it matters:
• DNA reveals more than identity — it exposes health, ancestry, and family connections
• The data doesn’t just belong to you — it can implicate relatives who never opted in
• A new owner might not respect your privacy

Take control now. Your genes deserve better security than a bankruptcy fire sale.

Electronic Frontier Foundation · How to Delete Your 23andMe DataThis week, the genetic testing company 23andMe filed for bankruptcy, which means the genetic data the company collected on millions of users is now up for sale. If you don't want your data included in any potential sale, it’s a good time to ask the company to delete it.

Trodde att man gjorde insulin från grispancreas, tror det var så man började iaf. Så överhörde jag en föreläsning min dotter tittade på. Tydligen kan man mippla m DNAt i ecolibakterier o få dem at producera insulin. Typ så förstod jag det, får läsa på. Men ändå. Magi!

"After more than two decades of work, researchers have achieved a genetics milestone: they have successfully sequenced the complete genomes of six ape species, a feat that seemed impossible just a few years ago."
