Big Tech's post-Roe privacy freakout is probably pointless

With the overturning of Roe v. Wade, many are asking how Big Tech companies will protect women's digital privacy. After all, some states are sure to enforce new abortion laws, and the reality behind everyone's modern digital trail could betray information about people going to get abortions.

"For years, privacy advocates have raised concerns about this massive data trove, full of private messages, political affiliations and even sensitive health data," the Washington Post notes. "Now that type of information could be used to find, arrest and prosecute those getting or abetting abortions."

What this fearmongering...
