In a letter to victims who filed a lawsuit against the company, 23andMe blames its breach on customers for reusing passwords.

Hope this isn’t a repeated submission. Funny how they’re trying to deflect blame after they tried to change the EULA post breach.

It’s terrible design. If they know their users are going to do this, they’re supposed to work around that. Not leave it as a vulnerability.
