52 years ago, Roe v. Wade secured the reproductive rights women fought for. In 2022, Dobbs overturned it & 22 states restricted our freedoms.

2 days ago, Trump took down reproductiverights.gov. But @reprocaucus.bsky.social will continue to share abortion resources. Your body, your choice!

Why can’t people set up a social network as a nonprofit? And not mine the data? Like a utility?

TikTok’s partial blackout signals the chaos of a looming U.S. ban, even with Trump likely granting a 90-day extension. The uncertainty exposes a deeper issue: weaponizing tech bans as political leverage. A real solution lies in transparency, not last-minute patches.
