      I tried telling my family this from the jump but half of them have used these services. Now me and all their descendants are fucked over because they just had to be idiots. It’s extra stupid because we already have our genealogy on both sides going back to like 1500s.

      When we said that data was the new oil in the 80’s, nobody listened.

      They still haven’t listened, but if you own stock in those companies at least it’s profitable.
