>Your conclusion begs the question that the corporation in question is tyrannical or disdains privacy

If you seek an answer to that question, you don't have to venture very far from Google, who birthed this creation.

I don't seek an answer, because I believe the question is answered that 23andme is not tyrannical and doesn't disdain privacy. Neither does Google, for that matter, and I think many people agree with such an assessment (Gmail has nearly half a billion active users).

"Begs the question" means your argument presupposed the truth of this part of the statement instead of supporting it.
