Privacy threats are intensifying across multiple fronts, from genetic data vulnerabilities at 23andMe to corporate violations and messaging app security concerns. Cameron Ivey breaks down three urgent privacy issues and provides practical guidance on protecting your digital footprint in an increasingly vulnerable online landscape.

• 23andMe users should consider deleting their genetic data immediately due to bankruptcy proceedings that could compromise privacy protections
• Law professor Craig Conneth warns that terms of service could change during bankruptcy, with inadequate federal regulations to protect consumers
• Honda fined $632,500 by California Privacy Protection Agency for creating unnecessarily complicated opt-out processes
• Companies must reform data request procedures and stop creating "mazes of chaos" that trick consumers
• Signal messaging app, despite its encryption features, has raised NSA security concerns after being used by senior US officials
• No messaging platform is completely secure for highly sensitive information
• Stay informed about your rights under privacy legislation like the CCPA
• Be mindful about what personal information you share digitally, even on supposedly secure platforms
