The genetics website 23andMe has been hacked, and a hacker claims to have millions of pieces of stolen data, although the firm disputes a breach. According to 23andMe, some "customer profile information" was obtained through personal accounts rather than directly from their servers. They believe the thief used credentials stuffed with stolen passwords from other sources. Due to the hackers conflicting statements, the scope of the intrusion is still unknown. For additional defence against such attacks, cybersecurity experts advise using unique passwords for various websites and installing twofactor authentication. Contacting the hacker was challenging it is unknown who they are and why they did it. B2B Tech News | 1 years ago

Senators Marco Rubio of the Republican Party and Mark Warner of the Democratic Party are among the senators urging President Bidens administration to prevent American businesses from working together on RISCV.
