TikTok has briefly suspended the account of Hey Jane, a prominent telemedicine abortion service, four times without explanation. Instagram has suspended Mayday Health, a nonprofit that provides information about abortion pill access, without explanation as well. And the search engine Bing has erroneously flagged the website for Aid Access, a major seller of abortion pills online, as unsafe.
Seems like someone is paying a lot of money to suppress access to information. Anyone have insight as to how to find out who specifically?
That’s a good point. The fact that the accounts get restored means they passed human evaluation. Systems likely block the account by default, pending review.
