Wisconsin Gets $275K from 23andMe Breach | Green Bay News

Wisconsin’s getting over $275K from a major 23andMe data breach settlement — but don’t expect direct payments from the state. The breach exposed genetic and personal data of 6.9 million users, including 78K Wisconsinites, with some info leaked to the dark web. This state funding covers response costs, while individual compensation comes from a separate national class-action lawsuit.
