Georgia Gets $452K from 23andMe Data Breach | Savannah News

Georgia’s set to receive over $452,000 from a massive 23andMe data breach settlement — part of a $18 million payout from 41 states after the genetic testing company’s cyberattack impacted millions. The money, managed by Georgia’s AG office, will fund consumer protection, privacy enforcement, education, legal costs, and victim assistance — all aimed at safeguarding personal data. This state-level payout is separate from the now-expired class-action claims, and Georgians need take no extra action to access their share. It’s a stark reminder: your genetic data is valuable — and vulnerable. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
