They are related to each other in many obvious ways, which the article goes into some detail on. Here's my own list, which overlaps with the article:
1. Overturning Roe would be a decision about privacy (specifically that US citizens do not have the right to private medical decisions)
2. Once Roe is overturned, women who need abortions -- perhaps even to save their lives -- may need to do so using the black market, which is fundamentally impossible without digital privacy
3. Women who have miscarriages may be suspected of abortions and prosecuted, and it's possible to detect a miscarriage in many non-medical data sets (shopping patterns, period trackers, chat logs, browsing history, phone records, etc.)
4. Forced-birth states, like Texas, will try to reach across state lines to prevent women from getting abortions in other states, which is much easier if the woman can be tracked with a simple subpoena to (for example) Google or her phone company

Now the same thing with abortions, you are a Trxan resident which means you can't even have a legal abortion elsewhere.
