Facebook and Google condemned over ads for ‘abortion pill reversal’ - The Guardian

Sep 15, 2021 43 secs

Facebook has served “abortion reversal” adverts 18.4m times since January 2020, according to a report from the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH), promoting an “unproven, unethical” and “dangerous” procedure.

Google shows the adverts on more than four-fifths of searches related to abortion across a number of US cities, according to the CCDH research, targeted at search terms such as “unwanted pregnancy” and “abortion pill”.

“Facebook and Google must stop these adverts, ban the groups and users involved in putting them together, and donate the tainted money they received to groups that protect fundamental sexual and reproductive rights.”.

On Facebook, the platform’s own analytics show that as many as 1.5 million users in the UK and 3 million in the Republic of Ireland could have been targeted by adverts promoting the process, paid for by the anti-abortion groups SPUC in the UK and the Life Institute in Ireland.
