This is awesome, thank you for your service! Goddamn, the premises around that are just... sad.

tf is usa on, why they need perios statistics
So they can prosecute people for getting illegal abortions.
typical Trump presidency bullshit. Yet they fail to prosecuate many gangsters and rich money launderers. like this was the biggest problem ever
Why US gov need to know about people's period?, that's weird and creepy
To get the needle, you need the whole haystack. Collect everything decrypt later
But it will still disclose that data to advertising companies which WILL give it to the authorities for a nominal fee
Also, why does the app keep that data in a centralized location where it can be scooped up like that?
And more importantly, people have known that everything is spyware since the Snowden leaks, why the hell would you ever give that kind of data to an app on your phone? Even if the app was totally E2EE and private, other things on your phone do all kinds of spying
Good
As a man who have been with the same woman the last 20 years I have an extremely limited experience in the field of periods to put it mildly, but what benefits does using these apps give you.
Could you get the same effect from an airgapped notebook?
An app doesn't get lost like a notebook, it builds the calendar for you, it can give recommendations about when fertility is at peak (notebook never talks back), it's always with you when you're in the bathroom. A notebook can work.
Maybe think of it a bit like watching a movie on DVD and wanting to switch which room it's playing in. It's totally doable, but it's a hassle.With Netflix and a smart TV (or better set up), you get a pretty seamless experience. Add more blood, nausea, cramping, and depression to that scenario.
A place to keep track of personal notes and details should, you know, be personal.
