To appease radical “pro-choice” abortion activists, Google and Yelp have both agreed to stifle search engine results for crisis pregnancy clinics.
Despite the fact that nearly 2 in 3 Americans support public funding for pregnancy centers, many of which offer free or discounted pregnancy tests, ultrasounds, and other care to women in need, both Google and Yelp have decided to implement the “fake clinic” framing touted by Democrats such as Sen. Elizabeth Warren.
Two months after congressional Democrats demanded Google block search results for crisis pregnancy centers, the Silicon Valley giant also announced it would add labels to pro-life clinics explicitly stating that they do not offer abortion services.
In a reply to 21 Democrats demanding the censorship Google wrote, “When someone in the US searches for health care providers that provide abortions — for example, using the query ‘abortion clinics near me’ — the Local Search results box will display facilities that have been verified to provide abortions.”
Similarly, Yelp, a San Francisco company that provides information and a place for customers to review businesses, announced last week that it would qualify searches for pregnancy-related care with a “consumer notice” that claims faith-based crisis pregnancy centers “typically provide limited medical services and may not have licensed medical professionals onsite.”
