Not to mention that not a dime would go to individuals. Companies like Reddit, Getty, Adobe and Penguin have all the data, we already gave it to them a long time ago.

This is one of the big reasons I never did 23andMe. Don't get me wrong, I'm super curious about what it has to tell me, but giving (paying to give it actually) my DNA to a private company that's amassing a huge repository of human DNA is a terrible idea.
