23andMe has finally confirmed the extent of its recent data breach,Watch Batman Begins Online and it's not good news.

A total of 6.9 million users of the genetic testing site have been affected, TechCrunch reported on Monday. 23andMe explained that although only 0.1 percent of its customers (14,000 users) had their information accessed by hackers initially, this then allowed the same group to access the profile information of millions of other users via the service's DNA Relatives feature. Those who opted in to this feature gave the site permission to automatically share some of their data with other users.
