Now, people needing an abortion also need a burner paid for winth cash. Fantastic.

This is exactly why we need privacy laws.

I’m male, and my voice is pretty unmistakeable so I can’t very well man the hotlines for agencies helping women find ways to get out of shitty states and have abortions.

I’d happily run all over the tri-state acquiring burners by the bunch though, for this exact use case.

Sounds like a plan. I'll remember this. Thanks.

And a fake name, and fake everything else as well.

Totally. It's grim.
