When law enforcement demands data about people suspected of getting abortions in states where it's illegal, tech firms will likely hand it over.

Why it matters: Big Tech companies collect enormous volumes of data on where we've been, what we've bought and who we've talked to.

• In states that have made abortion a crime, anyone who miscarries is a potential target for a police data demand, Axios' Ina Fried and Margaret Harding McGill report.

Between the lines: The companies aren't directly answering questions about how they'll respond to such inquiries now that the Supreme Court is letting states outlaw abortion.

• But the firms' privacy policies and past conduct answer the question: They may contest what they view as overly broad data requests. But they generally will cooperate with criminal investigations.

What's at stake: Period-tracking apps have drawn the most attention. But the potentially relevant data is far wider — everything from Amazon purchase data to Google search queries.

How it works: Law enforcement already seeks access to location data, content, usernames, browser history and other online activity from tech companies through warrants or subpoenas.

• Now, authorities are expected to seek that information in connection with abortion investigations, India McKinney, director of federal affairs for the Electronic Frontier Foundation, told Axios.

The intrigue: Law enforcement doesn't need a warrant to obtain some online information — because it is sold by data brokers.

👀 What we're watching: The post-Roe world will drive tech companies to review the volume of data they're collecting — and ask whether they need it, and how long they want to hold it.

Some big retailers are rationing over-the-counter emergency contraceptive pills, as demand spikes after the Supreme Court's abortion decision, The Wall Street Journal reports (subscription).

• CVS, Walmart and Rite Aid limited purchases of the pills, which were in short supply or out of stock yesterday on major retailer websites.

CVS and Rite Aid were limiting purchases to three pills per customer, The Journal said.

• "Walmart had some pills available without limits, but only in cases where they wouldn't ship until next month. Pills available this week were limited to four or six."

CVS told Bloomberg the limits are to ensure equitable access and consistent supply on shelves — but the chain has ample supply of emergency contraceptives Plan B and Aftera, online and in stores.

Gallup CEO Jon Clifton tells me that to flatten the curve on growing global unhappiness, private and public leaders need to focus on three things: improving well-being at work ... addressing global loneliness ... and fixing global hunger.

• Clifton's conclusions are based on the annual "Gallup Global Emotions" report, out today.

Why it matters: The world's stress is at record levels. "Emotionally, the second year of the pandemic was an even tougher year for the world than the first one," Gallup found.

• "As 2021 served up a steady diet of uncertainty, the world became a slightly sadder, more worried and more stressed-out place."

The bleak graphic above is based on people's self-reported anger, sadness, stress, worry and physical pain.

• The findings are based on an astonishing 127,000 interviews with adults in 122 countries and areas in 2021 and early 2022.

Between the lines: In Gallup's 2006 report, the U.S. ranked 20th out of 122 countries for negative emotions. In 2021, the U.S. was 46th.

• But that's not because we're getting happier, Clifton tells me: It's because the rest of the world is getting unhappier.

Colorado Democrats are about to find out what they got for spending $4 million to meddle in today's GOP Senate primary:

• Democratic ads have called state Rep. Ron Hanks a true conservative — and questioned whether businessman Joe O'Dea is even a Republican, Axios' Hans Nichols writes.

Why it matters: Democrats will either get a weaker Republican nominee for U.S. Senate to fight off — or strengthen the rival they feared.

State of play: Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.) isn't among this year's most vulnerable Democratic incumbents. But with inflation surging and President Biden's approval ratings in the tank, party strategists worry about how many incumbents could get wiped out in a wave election.

• Democrats would rather see Bennet face Hanks in November. So they've spent big to boost his chances with GOP primary voters.

The intrigue: Across the country, heavy spending by Democrats to promote (potentially) unelectable Republicans has accelerated this cycle.

Today's powerful USA Today cover is a full page of outlines of victims who have died in mass school shootings in the U.S.:

Since 1989, at least 182 children and adults have died on school grounds in mass killings, defined as when four or more people die, not including the shooter.

The U.S. is "far worse off than you think" when it comes to social media undermining its democracy, Nobel Peace Prize laureate and journalist Maria Ressa told Axios editor-in-chief Sara Kehaulani Goo.

• Why it matters: Ressa, a Filipino American who is co-founder of the news organization Rappler, says the next wave of elections around the world — including U.S. midterms in November — is another chance for social media to spread disinformation.

"Most people, they don't realize they're being manipulated, that these platforms are biased against facts," Ressa said in an exclusive interview ahead of her speech today in Honolulu at the East-West Center's International Media Conference.

• "Online violence is real-world violence," Ressa added, citing incidents around the world, including the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol and recent mass shootings by radicalized killers.

Tomorrow will mark 15 years since the iPhone went on sale and ushered in a new era — the smartphone age, with this miracle in so many pockets.

• It's hard to remember — or, for younger readers, imagine — how different mobile access was before June 29, 2007, AP points out.

Social media, and the ability for everyone on the planet to respond to everything, was in its infancy. We didn't get all news, all the time.

• The smartphone changed photography — and made us all "photographers."

"[T]he phone is a gamble on a new business for Apple," John Markoff wrote on the front page of The New York Times ("Apple, Hoping for Another iPod, Introduces Innovative Cellphone") on Jan. 10, 2007 — the day after Steve Jobs unveiled his masterpiece with "characteristic showmanship."

• "And even with its success with the iPod and a reborn line of computers, it has not been immune to marketplace failures, like the Macintosh Cube introduced in 2000."

🥊 David Pogue's "State of the Art" review in The Times declared: "[T]he iPhone is amazing. But no, it's not perfect."
