Reuters reported that genetics testing company 23andMe has agreed to pay a $30 million settlement after a hack exposed 6.9 million customers' personal information to the dark web. The company will also pay for three years of security monitoring for affected customers. The class action lawsuit alleged that 23andMe failed to alert customers with Ashkenazi Jewish and Chinese ancestry that their personal data was posted for sale and that they may have been specially targeted in the April 2023 breach. 23andMe said the settlement was "fair, adequate, and reasonable" in a court filing, per Reuters. In a Dec. 2023 blog post addressing the hack, the company said the attack started in April 2023 and lasted about five months. At the time, 23andMe had around 14.1 million customers in its system. The company said the hack affected at least half of the database.
