At first I thought they just sent some basic tracking stuff or something like that, but they actually sent health data. How can this not be a company-ending move? WTF?
And how can one have the chuzpe to send this announcement (https://flo.health/flo-ftc-settlement https://flo.health/flo-ftc-settlement) to their users, where they pat themselves on the head for not additionally sending the name and date of birth, deliberately trying to confuse their users? Why not also add "Your credit card information and passwords are safe!"?
