Viele US-Bundesstaaten und der District of Columbia haben das Gentest-Unternehmen 23andMe verklagt. Sie wollen verhindern, dass das Unternehmen persönliche genetische Daten seiner Kunden ohne deren Erlaubnis verkauft. Diese Klage wurde eingereicht, weil ein anderes Biotechnologieunternehmen die Daten kaufen möchte, da 23andMe finanzielle Probleme hat und übernommen werden soll. Der Staatsanwalt von Oregon, Dan Rayfield, sagte, dass die Daten – wie biologische Proben, DNA-Daten, Gesundheitsinformationen und medizinische Akten – nicht ohne die klare Zustimmung jeder Person verkauft werden dürfen. 23andMe wurde 2006 gegründet und bietet Kunden DNA-Testkits an, um ihre Herkunft zu erfahren und entfernte Verwandte zu finden. Seit 2021 hat das Unternehmen jedoch Schwierigkeiten, genug Geld zu verdienen. Im März wurden 40% der Mitarbeiter entlassen und Insolvenz angemeldet. Regeneron Pharmaceuticals plant, das Unternehmen für 256 Millionen Dollar zu kaufen, und hat versprochen, die Datenschutzregeln von 23andMe und die Gesetze einzuhalten. Ein unabhängiger Datenschutzexperte wurde beauftragt, den geplanten Verkauf und seine möglichen Folgen für den Datenschutz der Kunden zu prüfen.
