    I knew the whole idea of letting a company get your genetic fingerprint was a bad idea from the start. Being curious about my ancestry wasn’t worth it.

      That’s great but all it takes is some of your blood relatives to submit their genetic data and they can calculate your genetics to a degree that is accurate enough.

      Yeah, I feel like I dodged a bullet. As I knew some family members who thought about it but declined to do it because of the for-profit angle in case the company flopped.
