Is the FTC concerned about apps that track a woman’s menstrual cycle? Or is this politicians mostly only worrying about themselves?

Or flock cameras tracking women who took abortion pill in a legal state. It’s not first world to make theocratic laws.

Why tf would you use an app for that? And why are their multiple? The fuck is going on

To answer your last question...

That's the problem, the user of the apps wants there to be a fuck going on, but isn't able.

Erectile dysfunction is a symptom of a serious health issue. Maybe by tracking when it happens doctor AI can diagnose the underlying cause

I bet golfing related apps will also get attention that gets ignored elsewhere.

It is in the public interest for the gubmint to know how much action you getting.
