I’m concerned about the privacy implications of DNA testing services like 23andMe or AncestryDNA. What are the potential risks of sharing our genetic data with those companies, and are there any privacy-focused alternatives available?

For now. The US is a victim of legislative capture by corporations and it’s possible that in the future lobbying by insurance companies will open the door to them using some of that data.
They’re spending a lot of money lobbying inside the Beltway to change that. So far it hasn’t worked but it’s only a matter of time.
