Google profits from misleading anti-abortion ads.
Google has earned over $10 million in the past two years by allowing misleading advertisements for "fake" abortion clinics that aim to stop women from having the procedure, according to a report from the Center for Countering Digital Hate. The report identified 188 fake clinic websites that placed ads on Google, estimating that ads for fake clinics were clicked on by users 13 million times during this period. Google requires any organization that wants to advertise to people seeking information about abortion services to be certified and clearly disclose whether they do or do not offer abortions.
