23andMe CEO Anne Wojcicki stepped down effective immediately.

The company says it will look to sell “substantially all of its assets” through a court-approved reorganization plan.

Some privacy experts are recommending that people who have used the service delete their data.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta issued an urgent consumer alert before 23andMe filed for bankruptcy.

He reminded people they have the right to have their data deleted.

You can delete your data by logging in and going to “settings” and clicking “ Permanently Delete Data ”.
