Yup, boarder towns in red states are going to start stopping women as they travel through their towns to make sure they aren’t pregnant.

“You had an abortion at location x in the afternoon of the 2nd. We can prove you fueled your car in county x that morning. The only route you could have taken was through county y.”
It’s why that mafia guy always pays cash at the tolls
It’s easier than that your phone company will sell your data in aggregate and can trivially prove who both drove through their town and stopped at an abortion clinic. You also bought the pregnancy test with your debit card, had it shipped to your address, used your loyalty card to save 50c on the eggs you bought at the same time. You did the research via google search, navigated via google maps.
Even if you did none of these things the mere act of recording license plates driving through and then situating folks at abortion clinics to record plates could easily leak enough information. We should do more to protect our information but we must accept as a practical fact that for most too much will leak and attend to strenuously protecting our rights even in the face of such leaks.

The article says this might be a test case. I imagine that they plan to just add on charges. Someone uses the Pharisees tattle bounty on someone getting an abortion, they figure out she must have driven through that area.
