Some background for new readers:

The 23andMe founder (and current CEO) Anne Wojcicki is the sister of Susan Wojcicki, until recently a long time Youtube CEO.

Anne is also the ex-wife of Google/Alphabet founder Sergey Brin. Google/Alphabet is also an investor in 23andMe. Youtube is an Alphabet company.

The Wojcicki-Brin family tree seems like its own mini-map of Silicon Valley!

It’s amusing and ironic to me that the co-founder of a gene-testing company has such an interconnected family network within the tech industry.

It was sort of cool that as a 23andme employee some time back (10-12 yrs?), you could use some of Google's amenities because of these relationships.
