This story is from 2012. We did absolutely nothing to stop this nonsense, and I just wanted to put this story back out here so people understand that simply deleting period tracker apps and using pregnancy tests you bought before the Trump presidency isn’t going to save you from the lack of privacy and the abuse we have coming.
I also wanted to add that some of us remembered this so in 2020 when a bunch of people went after a target that also had a police station in it using facial recognition they were getting from the target store during the #BLM protests, we knew why they went after Target. It wasn’t LOOTING. It was because they were giving this information to the POLICE just because they could. And the police were already stalking and murdering members of that community.
