Thank you Thomas\n\nBrilliant webinar from Thomas with lots to think about for the future.\n\nChock full of information, I have had concern's about privacy in general. I do not belong to any social media sites and I try to avoid having my photo taken that would probably be posted to a social media site. My tree's are private and I will now re read privacy notices. Thank You Thomas & Geoff\n\nExcellent as always\n\nexcellent as always\n\nExcellent information and plenty of helpful resources mentioned.

It's clear that Thomas does his homework when presenting these types of topics. I appreciate that. Thank you Thomas, Jeff, and Legacy\n\nGreat webinar! Thomas is always so helpful! Thanks :)\n\nI agree with whoever said they thought this was Thomas' best webinar. It was packed full of helpful information.\n\nI did not expect the subject matter to be this interesting. I learned a lot and realized there are so many facets of this subject that I had never thought of. Thank you.\n\nI learned so much today! It's important to think about opt-in/opt-out choices, and the consequences of the choice for the longer term.\n\nI thought I knew most of this already, but learned a good deal of important information today. Thanks!\n\nInformative and well presented, as always with Thomas' webinars.\n\ninformative. excellent as always\n\nInteresting, informative & sad as those who won't take DNA tests now due to fears for their privacy probably are on Facebook, etc., where privacy is almost non-existent and, as you indicated, of more use in identifying criminals or solving old crimes than the DNA information. I personally have opted in for myself on Gedmatch although not for the two relatives whose kits I manage. \n\nIt helped me make informed decisions about my DNA submission.\n\nLearned a lot of new information today!\n\nLot's of great info!!\n\nLots of great information provided by a thorough speaker. I appreciate the opportunity to be a part.\n\nLots to consider! Thanks for this thought provoking webinar!\n\nLove how Thomas explains things so clearly.\n\nNo surprises learned a lot!
