23andMe user data targeting Ashkenazi Jews leaked online::A user on a popular hacker forum had claimed to have made a larger database of users for sale earlier this week. It’s unclear if whoever compiled the list to only include Ashkenazi heritage is the same person or group who initially made it for sale.

It makes me regret using the service.
Yeah, a lot of people got swept up in the fact that it was a novel curiosity.
