@Nicolecpln@VitalikButerin@dacc_kitchen We’re DOING this!! Join us!!! Got our early funding from a cryptography studio, we have a killer app (live), and we have over 100k users. Seriously, let’s talk!

Embody is the first period tracker that is local first (your data doesn't touch the cloud), encrypted, and open source. You do not have to trust us with your most personal data - we don't have it!

Our big vision is to create a decentralized social space for women and people with cycles to talk freely about their experiences as menstruators without fear of retribution. We deserve more than pen and paper. We deserve a safe space to talk about our lives.
What's the problem?
If you live in a state with restrictive abortion laws, the information you share with your period tracker can be subpoenaed in the case of a suspected abortion.
That's why we are creating Embody. https://t.co/1J8KJvQbgX
Fantastic paper out of Duke U that I've been referencing for months now.
The big finding? People care a LOT about the privacy of their menstrual data, AND they are not aware of the vulnerability of their data in their period apps.

The issue is awareness. I believe that gap is closing, but we need to focus on bringing awareness to the problem in our marketing campaigns over the next few months. Anecdotally, when people hear how creepy Flo is, they can't switch to Embody fast enough.

@maiab In 2021, with two startups and two kids under 5 I was dreaming of a winery/goat farm where I could sip wine, work, and watch the 'kids' play. Key element - wide open spaces and a fence. Wish I liked beer more.
Today, Florida's extreme and cruel six-week abortion ban goes into effect. This ban, which is not rooted in science, will cause immense harm to not just people in the state, but those in the South who have accessed care in Florida.
But there are still options! 🧵
@halletecco@halletecco my project https://t.co/yf7u3Rq0d5 is healthcare adjacent, and I totally feel this post! We are taking big bets on protective guardrails from a unique, outsider's angle. As a mother living in a state with restrictive abortion laws, I'm focused on paving a new way.
Embody's Inner Circle and TACo Integration ❗
@EmbodySpace just submitted their proposal to integrate the Embody App with @TheTNetwork's Threshold Access Control (TACo).
