"Knowing that my DNA was a part of this study gives me a real sense of being part of something that is both exciting and could be the start of real change" We are incredibly grateful to every DecodeME participant. We would not be where we are today without you – thank you.

You remember COVID era censorship, right? They banned us from their apps. They deplatformed alternate views and tried to silence any form of opposition. That's why we built Unplugged. So when the chips are down, we know we have an independent platform that will have our back.
