Maybe a naive question, but Is there a service like 23 and me but that doesn’t collect/keep my genetic information ? @nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

This makes sense, I don’t really know how they come up with those numbers. I feel like if we DID try to classify it (ex. If you have X gene, you are Y race), it’s much more likely to be used to cause harm. It wouldn’t make any sense to begin with, and it would enable arbitrary persecution
I’m more familiar with the inverse, where you can provide better care by screening for risks and generic markers that are more common for a particular demographic. That actually helps humanity and is worth studying more
