Vingt-sept États et le District de Columbia ont poursuivi en justice l'entreprise 23andMe, qui propose des tests génétiques. Ils veulent l'empêcher de vendre les informations génétiques personnelles de ses clients sans leur accord.

Cette action en justice a commencé après qu'une entreprise de biotechnologie a voulu acheter une société qui avait des problèmes d'argent. Le procureur général de l'Oregon, Dan Rayfield, a dit que les données, comme les échantillons biologiques, l'ADN, les informations sur la santé et les dossiers médicaux, ne devraient pas être vendues sans l'accord clair de chaque personne.

23andMe, une entreprise fondée en 2006, vend des kits de test ADN avec de la salive. Ces kits aident les clients à connaître leurs origines et à trouver des membres de leur famille éloignée. Mais l'entreprise a des problèmes d'argent depuis qu'elle est entrée en bourse en 2021. En mars, elle a renvoyé 40 % de ses employés et a fait faillite. Regeneron Pharmaceuticals veut acheter 23andMe pour 256 millions de dollars. Ils ont dit qu'ils respecteraient les règles de confidentialité de 23andMe et la loi. Un spécialiste indépendant de la protection de la vie privée va étudier cette vente et comment elle pourrait affecter les informations personnelles des clients.
