The Supreme Court last month overturned Roe v. Wade, triggering laws around the country that made abortion illegal for millions of Americans. One trend has been the posting of videos, tweets and images of herbs including mugwort, pennyroyal and blue cohosh. AdvertisementMeta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, said it allows posts and ads promoting health-care services, including abortion. Spokesman Kevin McAlister said the company prohibits the direct sale of all prescription drugs, including abortion medications misoprostol and mifepristone. Google said on Friday it would delete some places people have visited from their location histories online, including medical facilities like abortion clinics.
