AMERICANS who use a genetic testing company have been urged to delete their data after the firm was the victim of a data breach.
Biotechnology giant 23andMe appears to be facing an uncertain future after the cyber scare that hit in 2023 and the resignation of the entire board.
Top execs resigned from the board last month and came against a challenging financial performance backdrop.
In the last financial year, 23andMe reported a net loss of $667 million – compared to a net loss of $312 million the previous year.
Anne Wojcicki, the firm’s CEO, revealed she wanted the chain to go private.
The company has been hit by turbulence, and cyber experts have urged its customers to take action.
“If you have a 23andme account, today is a good day to login and request the deletion of your data,” Eva Galperin, the director of cybersecurity at the Electronic Frontier Federation, posted on X.
When it comes to a customer deleting their data, the process is explained on the 23andMe website.
Data can be deleted via a user’s account settings.
Alternatively, they can email the customer care team to request that their data be deleted.
However, customers have been warned that the process cannot be undone or canceled once it has been started.
The company told CBS it is committed to protecting users’ privacy.
In September, company execs agreed to pay out $30 million relating to a privacy dispute.
Court papers alleged millions of customers’ data was swiped, and some of it was uploaded onto the dark web.
A slew of lawsuits were submitted against the company over the breach.
Hackers carried out the breach using a technique known as “credential stuffing,” stealing usernames and passwords.
CHIEFS at the genetics company 23andMe have agreed to pay out $30 milllion in relation to a privacy dispute. The U.S. Sun has broken down the terms of the settlement below:
Customers who have other accounts but use the same usernames and passwords were extremely vulnerable.
It’s not yet known how many customers will receive payments as the precise figures are being ironed out.
But it’s estimated that checks up to $10,000 will be issued.
Cash payments will also be administered to those whose health information was disclosed.
Chiefs at the 23andMe have welcomed the resolution.
“We continue to believe this settlement is in the best interest of 23andMe customers, and we look forward to finalizing the agreement,” the company said.
The 23andMe settlement is not the only payment Americans can claim.
Americans can file claims for up to $4,400 if they file they were impacted by a data breach that affected the pecan producer Green Valley.
And, Cash App users are in line to get a share of a settlement following a data breach.
Class action lawsuits offer groups of people, or 'classes,' a way to band together in court.
These suits are often brought by one or a few people who allege a company or other entity has wronged a large group of people.
When a suit becomes a class action, it extends to all “class members,” or people who may have similar complaints to those who filed the suit.
Companies often settle class actions – offering payment to class members who typically waive their right to pursue further legal action by accepting money.
These payout agreements frequently include statements by the defendant denying wrongdoing. Companies tend to settle class actions to avoid the costs of further litigation.
Pollution, discrimination, or false advertising are a few examples of what can land a class action on a company’s doorstep.
LANDO NORRIS will not win the Formula One drivers championship because he has “mental weaknesses”, according to Red Bull advisor Helmut Marko.
With just six rounds of the season to go, McLaren star Norris sits 52 points behind reigning champion Max Verstappen.
The Brit will be hoping to close the gap at this weekend’s US Grand Prix, having won two of the last four races.
However, Red Bull advisor Marko has started the mind games in an effort to throw the 24-year-old off his game as the championship reaches crunch time.
Speaking to Motorsport Magazin, the 81-year-old backed Verstappen to win his fourth title this year.
He said: “Verstappen [will win the championship].
“He is the best, he’s the fastest and, above all, he has the mental strength to theoretically fight for the world championship more than Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris.
“We know Norris has some mental weaknesses.
“I’ve read about some of the rituals he needs to do to perform well on race day.”
Back in 2022, Norris revealed one of these pre-race rituals.

He told Vanity Fair: “I always call my parents…
“Still my mum wants to hear my voice before I go race.”
Despite putting their lives on the line and racing at break-neck speeds every race weekend, F1 stars are a superstitious bunch.
Michael Schumacher famously got his car from the left, always carried an amulet with the initials of his family members and had a preference to wear odd numbers after winning all of seven of his titles with odd numbers.
Lewis Hamilton also revealed that Schumacher used to pee in his racesuit before every race, a practice also followed by Nico Rosberg.
Four-time champion Sebastian Vettel dressed his racesuit with small trinkets ranging from a metal pig to a one-cent coin and placing two shining pieces of lucky silver on his race boots.

The legendary Alberto Ascari had a range of quirks ranging from avoiding black cats, staying away from unlucky numbers and not allowing anyone else to handle the case that had his lucky blue helmet – cruelly ironic given that he was killed in a testing accident while wearing Eugenio Castellotti’s white helmet rather than his own.
On the current grid, Sergio Perez personalises his car by carrying a picture of the late Pope John Paul II on the inside of his cockpit.
Charles Leclerc likes to sit next to his car in his bubble, Pierre Gasly has an espresso and naps for 30 mins, while Fernando Alonso jumps on the right side of his car before the race.
Meanwhile, Alex Albon meticulously sticks to his pre-race routine, from eating 90 minutes before a race, changing into his gear 30 minutes before setting up a cubby for his equipment.
And despite Marko’s comments about Norris’ pre-race rituals, Verstappen has his own rituals, where he plays video games the night before a race to help get him in the zone.
