Tip number two: Celeste’s friend and fellow high-schooler, Sumer (last name withheld for privacy)

Snitches don’t deserve privacy.

This is one very good example why strong and secure encrypted communication apps should be the default. You should not have to be at the mercy of fb in order to talk to your mom about personal and private matters. It may not have mattered too much in this particular case as the tip came from a judas but it no doubt does, or will, in others going forward.

Not to mention that abortion is medically indistinguishable from miscarriage, if they didnt talk or act with intent to perform an abortion would anyone have noticed in the first place?

Edit: right, just noticed the sub this was posted on. y’all already know.

Sumer the snitch is a real bitch. Your friend trusted your and you betrayed her. Just because it’s"the law" doesn’t make it right. I don’t snitch on my pot plug.

I’ve been seeing the name “Sumer” a lot in recent years. Isn’t it supposed to be “Summer”? How do you pronounce “Sumer”?

Celeste’s purportedly private, self-managed abortion—conducted outside of the healthcare system—was suddenly public and criminal because a close friend betrayed her trust.

What a fucking piece of shit.

If there ever was a time for anti snitch culture to actually make a comeback…
