    “The information included origin estimation, phenotype, health information, photos, identification data and more.”

    “The researcher downloaded two files from the BreachForums post and found that one had information on 1 million 23andMe users of Ashkenazi heritage. The other file included data on more than 300,000 users of Chinese heritage.”

    Oh goodie. Now, crazy Trumpian goons can hunt down Ashkenazi Jews. Trumpland and associated ilk, have been crazy about them lately. That’s fucking terrifying.
