Online platforms and websites work with highly advanced tracking codes that keep a detailed track record of their users. Furthermore, many users are not aware of the fact that their data which is created by clicks, likes, posts, and searches are collected and tracked on a daily basis.
In 2021 a young Polish woman, Izabela, was admitted to the hospital due to pregnancy complications. Her fetus had many problems and disorders and could not survive. But doctors were hesitant to operate on her because of a new law in Poland that bans abortion except in cases of incest and rape. Isabella’s condition worsened. She texted her mother: “my temperature is rising, I don’t think they will operate on me until the fetus’s heart is beating, and by then I could get sepsis.” She died a few hours later.
