Reproductive Privacy in the Age of Surveillance Capitalism

The recent Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization poses an unquestionable threat to the safety and privacy of abortion providers and patients alike. The right to make health related decisions free from commercial or government interference is inherent to one’s dignity and autonomy. The implications are all the more harrowing in light of the technological realities of today: a huge data broker industry that sells our location data and most sensitive information to private and government purchasers alike. The data broker industry also uses secret algorithms to profile nearly every person in ways that undermines their decisional and reproductive privacy. EPIC has worked for decades to defend privacy rights online, and will continue its advocacy in the face of the coming challenges. See EPIC’s statement about the decision here.
