Just realized that maybe the folding companies already gave the data back to their customers. Maybe then the customers could upload that data to their 23andMe account. Data portability! Heh. Oh.

I was wondering. I saw one or two personal genomics companies fold recently. They go down with a treasure trove of genetic info. Is there any way to buy those 'assets' (with permission from the owners of the data)? With 23amdMe in the middle of this genealogical research, it would be nice to collect such info that will be potentially lost as a company folds. That’s cool.
