I'm a 23andme customer and the aggregate data being used like this is exactly what I expected and is a big part of the reason I signed up.

There is a lot I don't love about Pharma companies, but when they use this data to develop or better target drugs, they are advancing science.

Wouldn't you prefer if 23andMe to offer the data to all scientists and not only pharma companies paying millions?

Why do you assume 23andMe doesn't?
