23andMe Is Terrifying, but Not for the Reasons the FDA Thinks

The genetic-testing company's real goal is to hoard your personal data

Consider the case of Google. (One of the founders of 23andMe, Anne Wojcicki, is presently married to Sergei Brin, the founder of Google.) When it first launched, Google billed itself as a faithful servant of the consumer, a company devoted only to building the best tool to help us satisfy our cravings for information on the web. And Google’s search engine did just that. But as we now know, the fundamental purpose of the company wasn’t to help us search, but to hoard information. Every search query entered into its computers is stored indefinitely. Joined with information gleaned from cookies that Google plants in our browsers, along with personally identifiable data that dribbles from our computer hardware and from our networks, and with the amazing volumes of information that we always seem willing to share with perfect strangers—even corporate ones—that data store has become Google’s real asset.

Idk what they're up to ultimately but it appears they're trying to complete the 'Circle' of information they have. Did any of you read the book 'The Circle'? I read it not so long ago and it appears it's not far from the truth of what's being revealed here by Q. Q also said "Think Circle".

 

The Circle is a 2013 dystopian novel written by American author Dave Eggers. The novel chronicles tech worker Mae Holland as she joins a powerful Internet company. Her initially rewarding experience turns darker. The aim of the company is to complete the 'circle' where all information on everyone is mapped, from school exam results to medical records.

Sergy Brin aims for Google to be 'like the mind of God' -

“The perfect search engine,” the Google co-founder Sergey Brin famously stated, “would be like the mind of God.”

Would adding in 23andMe and their mapping of the humane genome mean Google's circle would be complete? Intriguing stuff.

I hear you. When tech is sold as 'the coolest thing ever and you're uncool if you don't want it', it's difficult for normies to break through that and think for themselves. Whenever the negatives of any new tech are mentioned their eyes glaze over. Humans in general are far too easy to manipulate.

23andMe was founded by Linda Avey, Paul Cusenza and Anne Wojcicki in 2006 to provide genetic testing and interpretation to individual consumers.

In 2007, Google invested $3,900,000 in the company, along with Genentech, New Enterprise Associates, and Mohr Davidow Ventures. Wojcicki was married to Google co-founder Sergey Brin at the time.

23andMe Sells Data for Drug Search

The consumer genetic-testing startup has amassed one of the world’s largest databases of DNA. Now it is sifting through it for clues to new drugs.

 

23andMe has managed to amass a collection of DNA information about 1.2 million people, which last year began to prove its value when the company revealed it had sold access to the data to more than 13 drug companies. One, Genentech, anted up $10 million for a look at the genes of people with Parkinson’s disease.
