Women fearmongering each other that they're going to be arrested based on period app data is the most insane and delusional persecution fantasy

The paranoia on this topic is unreal. There are many, many posts about how if you even just forget to log a period one month, or you have an irregular period due to some medical condition, the gestapo will be at your door to arrest you for manslaughter/murder, with app data as the only evidence.

Roe v Wade has been overturned for 2.5 years and there has not been a single case of this happening. But since the election there have been an uptick of posts stating this is a likely scenario.

In order for this to happen, the government would need a warrant to obtain this data, and then a court would have to determine that said data was robust enough to have any meaning or prove anything beyond a reasonable doubt. There are many reasons someone could miss a period besides an abortion. Unless you literally wrote "had an abortion" in the app, tracking what days you bled is basically meaningless.

There are plenty of things to worry about right now, maybe especially as women, but how you track your period shouldn't be one of them. And also - if it's such a source of stress that Uncle Sam might know when your last period was, use a paper calendar?
