MyHeritage Data Breach and Rapid DNA Act of 2017

A security breach at the genealogy site MyHeritage exposed the email addresses of 92 million users. This news coincides with the implementation of the Rapid DNA Act of 2017, which allows law enforcement to match DNA samples to the FBI's CODIS database in minutes. The EFF has expressed concerns about the accuracy of these rapid tests, particularly in cases involving multiple DNA sources.
