Inside the U.S. Government-Bought Tool That Can Track Phones at Abortion Clinics (www.404media.co)

Privacy advocates got access to Locate X, a phone tracking tool which multiple U.S. agencies have bought access to, and showed me and other journalists exactly what it was capable of. Tracking a phone from one state to another to an abortion clinic. Multiple places of worship. A school. Following a likely juror to a residence. And all of this tracking is possible without a warrant, and instead just a few clicks of a mouse.

When supreme court justice kavanaugh was followed by protesters he had a hissy fit and said they couldnt do that. But it's totally fine to spy on everyone with a phone and expose their medical data.

These hypocritical fuckheads deserve exactly what you are proposing and I'd fucking love to see it happen.

We could even say it's to protect the children... make sure certain politicians who have expressed interest in legalizing child marriage aren't left alone with any.
