Seems to be 3 main companies - Ancestry, 23andMe, CRI Genetics.

Of course once your DNA is on file, there may be privacy issues and ramifications, but nothing in life is without risk IMO.

Anyone here on TV use DNA/Genetic test? Results etc.

Do you have any idea what they do with your DNA sample once you give it to them? All the personal questions asked and the sample of DNA make me wonder what is their end purpose. Buyer beware. There are many companies that are taking DNA for ulterior motives.
