Amendment XIV
Section 1.

[...] No state shall make or enforce any law which shall
abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the
United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of
life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;
nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws.

Dobbs rewrites this, it is invalid precedent. States are
liable for denying needed abortions, e.g. TX.

No problem here. It must have your number. Windows spies are not worthy

I've read that Distrowatch is being blocked by some governments. I guess
they don't want people to use an OS that doesn't have back doors built in.
