Everyone who served on the board or worked for the company should be held liable, personally and in a piercing of the corporate veil.

Individuals had responsibility when they made these decisions. It is on the courts to make the victims whole, despite the shenanigans around corporate liability limits.

EDIT: I legitimately think that if we _don't_ hold individuals accountable for these sorts of data breaches of the most sensitive data imaginable then there is no sense to legal systems.

EDIT2: Assuming Gemini has any semblance of accurate information, here are some individuals to consider beginning with:

- Anne Wojcicki (Co-Founder, Chair of the Board)
