“In the states where abortion has been or will soon be banned, any pregnancy loss past an early cutoff (which is conception in some states) can now potentially be investigated as a crime. Search histories, browsing histories, text messages, location data, payment data, information from period-tracking apps—prosecutors can examine all of it if they believe that the loss of a pregnancy may have been deliberate. Even if prosecutors fail to prove that an abortion took place, those who are investigated will be punished by the process, liable for whatever might be found.”

I'm sure that the court will get on all those other concepts that are derived from the constitution but aren't explicitly stated:
- substantive due process
- qualified immunity
- executive privilege
And many other derived rights we currently enjoy.

Re: Roe v Wade and data implications - there's already discussion of forcing women to submit a negative pregnancy test to cross a State Border. Disgusting, what a depressing day.

Yeah it's going to get real nasty for women living in red states. Women who will then turn around and vote Republican.

One thing I haven't seen in any coverage of this is, did someone challenge this in court, or did the supreme court just decide hey, let's fuck some shit up? If it's the latter, that just doesn't seem right. They shouldn't be able to just overturn a previous court's ruling just because they want to. Hopefully congress will nut up and do something about this, but I probably have a better chance of winning the lottery than that happening. The "government should stay out of our lives" republican party will shut it down.
