either africandna or african ancestry
had it on the website, even before this latest reveal that ancestry "retains all rights" and 23andme was selling to 3rd parties



the other thing is the black companies are matching to tribes, not countries

some pros and cons to each i guess.
but the country match is to a place that didnt even exist 100 hundred years ago, much less during middle passage

so being "40% nigerian" when nigeria has dozens of tribes and the tribes crossed current national borders
is kinda like if your match was 40% american. beyond the surface its not saying a whole lot

but blk ppl collectively know like 5% of our background so they making money selling us another 6%

a friend, not sure what company he used but his report just said '85% subsaharan'. lol wtf

also some ppl get into finding their haplogroup and researching that, etc


i wanna do it but i dont wanna do it.
or send samples to all the companies and see what they say when results dont match
