The headline says "people hacked" not "23andme hacked". I see a difference there though either way people should read the article to get a full picture.

Why even mention 23andme in the headline then?

Because that's the company from which the information was obtained from...?

Fair, sorry. Still, the title is weird, it could've been worded better to avoid confusion.
