This company only ever existed to give your DNA to the police. The whole thing has been owned and ran by the NSA from the start.

They would fraudulently claim that people were 2% black in their customer paud DNA analysis when it was untrue. All for some specious social justice reasoning. I wouldn't trust them about anything.

When companies like this die, it's a good day for the world. These are extremely dystopian, evil companies.

Ya don't need this. Everyone in the world started out as black and comes from a valley in Africa.

The value in the company is the data that they get,l and the ability for them to sell that data. that’s what people don’t realise, it’s not like they delete your DNA data after they send to you

Just another female got rich story by marrying a successful male or being a scammer. In this case she did both.

Huh, I always thought that DNA testing was silly, but her goal of researching illness is a noble one.

So, she built the company with one of the most influental men in Silicon Valley at that time as husband, everyone chipped in in the funding rounds, because of the connection and then she ran the business into the ground. And now, after selling shares at the huge evaluation days, she wants to buy back the company … Well she really did it herself.
