Why hasn’t Ancestry been sued then? I know there were issues around GEDmatch a while ago (never used them) in terms of privacy. Nothing I’ve read in Ancestry’s Privacy Statement says that they can legally retain data after you’ve requested deletion for an indefinite time. Are you sure it’s Ancestry you’re thinking of and not another company?

I think you have to manually enable it (may depend on your distro/DE) but SDDM works fine with Wayland as it stands now.

Use Ancestry.com instead. Ancestry asks if you want to be part of x y z. Say no to all. Also opt for Ancestry to destroy your sample. Once your test is completed, download the raw data file. Then request your data and account to be deleted.

You can then use services like Promethease to give you information on any potential genetic issues.

I don’t know if 23 and me offers the same level of privacy as only have experience with Ancestry.com.

Make sure whichever service you use, you read the privacy statement.

Also with Ancestry (dunno if 23&me does it), you can opt out of all their suggested extra opt ins, download your raw data and then request them to destroy your sample and delete your account.

Reminds me of my Windows XP days when I used to customise the hell out of everything I could… custom boot screen… and yes custom BSOD. Which I switched to red 🟥❗ One day my PC RSODs in front of a family member and he said, “Oh shit, that must be really bad if it’s red instead of blue!” 😂
