stored on databases many people just say "If you're doing nothing<br>
wrong, then it doesn't matter".<br>
Well, guess what...... The US Supreme Court just criminalised abortion.<br>
Now all that tracking data will be used to track women in the US for<br>
evidence that they might be involved in illegal activity.<br>

"We are just a few steps away from digital dragnets for people who are<br>

Tracking data that can be used includes -<br>
Period- and fertility-tracking apps<br>
location data and GPS tracking<br>
web searches<br>
mapping queries for health clinics or chemists<br>

It's a privacy nightmare.<br>
