Gregory's ServerHacker leaks millions of 23andme genetic data profiles.
Please resequence your DNA asap, make sure you use at least four different letters and a minimum length of 3.2×10⁹ characters.

@nblr Seriously worried that the demographic who send their DNA to places like that has a considerable overlap with people who believe biometrics are secure. Also, I wish faking a genome was as easy as the recipe you provide. 😎  @dozykraut  @ciredutempsEsme @nblr True, but I believe that could be done with some normal genealogy sleuthing, don’t you think?  Using DNA similarity to trace people who hide with their relatives after domestic violence. also political dissidents who have fled from an authoritarian state abroad, etc. You can change telephone number, address, email, social media accounts, personal web sites, hair style, eye color with contact lenses, look with cosmetic chirurgy, even gender by taking hormones. But you cannot change your own DNA, the DNA of your relatives, or forbid your relatives to have their DNA atchived by 23andme, competing companies or the state. it is a biometric feature and unchangable by definition. And still 23andme published millions profiles of most private data, endangering for eternity not only millions of people but also dozens of millions of their relatives and all their offspring from now to the end of life on earth (or at least to the end of computer use by DNA-based lifeforms on earth). Each time another DNA database provider publishes their DNA profiles, the new data can and will be combined with the existing public data, multiplying the threat and rising exponentially. Human rights, citizen rights are the issue. Without privacy, you may no longer dare to actually express your meaning, work as a journalist, live your religion, go to the doctor etc. @TisTree @nblr They can sell it to neonazis, fascists, terrorists, racists and antisemites, to anybody who deems a group of people as"unworthy" or "less worthy" than another and wants to "sort them out", apart from insurance companies and big pharma, but I guess the latter two already bought it from the breached dna-company itself. https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2023/10/06/23andme-hacked-data/ @nblr See that's why security experts recommend sleeping next to a radioisotope thermoelectric generator core. Keeps your DNA randomized and is very cozy. 👍 |
@nblr laut Schwurblern hilft da ne mRNA Impfung ☝️
