Twenty-seven states and the District of Columbia have sued the genetic testing company 23andMe. They want to stop the sale of personal genetic information without customers' clear permission. This lawsuit started because another biotech company wants to buy 23andMe, which is having financial problems. Oregon's Attorney General, Dan Rayfield, stated that this data, which includes biological samples, DNA information, health traits, and medical records, should not be sold unless each person gives their clear and informed consent.
