059. Stolen DNA: What Really Happened at 23andMe

What happens when your DNA gets hacked? In this episode of #CyberChats, we dive into the 2023 cyberattack on 23andMe — one of the biggest genetic data breaches ever.


We break down how it happened (spoiler: reused passwords), why it matters (even if you never signed up), and how your DNA could still be out there... years later.


Plus: We unpack the $30 million lawsuit, the company’s bankruptcy, and how to protect your data now.
