"23andMe's Genetic Data of Jewish Users Hacked and Sold Online"

A hacker is attempting to sell records containing names, locations, and ethnicities of potentially millions of customers of genetic testing company 23andMe, with a focus on those with Jewish ancestry. The leaked data, confirmed by 23andMe, does not include genomic details but does include usernames, regional locations, profile photos, and birth years. The hacker likely used a technique called credential stuffing, exploiting reused login credentials from other breaches. The company is investigating the incident and has urged users to change their passwords and enable two-factor authentication. The data breach raises concerns about privacy and comes at a time of increased antisemitic attacks in the United States.
