“I Hope Your Customers Sue You Into Oblivion.”
During a heated Senate hearing, Sen. Josh Hawley accused 23andMe’s interim CEO Joe Selsavage of misleading users about their ability to permanently delete their data. Hawley cited the company’s own privacy policy, which admits that key personal and genetic data may still be retained— even after users delete their accounts.
“You lied to them,” Hawley said. “You keep their data, you profit from it, and then pretend they’re in control. They’re not. You are.”
