First posts of thread:

    If you are using an online period tracker or tracking
    your cycles through your phone, get off it and delete
    your data. 
    
    Now.

    Let me make something very clear to everyone in the retweets wondering
    why.
    
    Peter Thiel has already sold data tracking the locations of marginalized
    people to the government.

    If you think that your data showing when you last menstruated isn't of
    interest to those who are about to outlaw abortion, whew do I have a
    wakeup call for YOU.
