JAKARTA - Facebook appears to have started removing posts of users selling, buying, soliciting, or trading abortion pills.
After the US Supreme Court overturned Roe V. Wade on Friday, many social media users offered abortion pills to people whose abortion access had been or was about to be revoked.
It is not clear when Meta started deleting the post, however, this was first reported by Motherboard Associate Press, that such posts were quickly removed.
Content that attempts to buy, sell, trade, gift, request or donate pharmaceuticals is not allowed. Content that discusses the affordability and accessibility of prescription medication is allowed. We've discovered some instances of incorrect enforcement and are correcting these.

There have been multiple tests that The Verge reporter tried, and AP Reporter offering the abortion pill, and minutes later, the post has been deleted.
In response to the reporting, a Meta spokesperson took to Twitter and said that "Content that attempts to buy, sell, trade, gift, solicit, or donate drugs is not allowed."

It is known that Facebook has removed some of the erroneous posts, and Stone says that Meta is working on fixing them. 'We have found several instances of erroneous enforcement and are working to fix them,' Stone said.
