"Bots on the internet are nothing new, but a sea change has occurred over the past year. For the past 25 years, anyone running a web server knew that the bulk of traffic was one sort of bot or another. There was googlebot, which was quite polite, and everyone learned to feed it - otherwise no one would ever find the delicious treats we were trying to give away. There were lots of search engine crawlers working to develop this or that service. You'd get 'script kiddies' trying thousands of prepackaged exploits. A server secured and patched by a reasonably competent technologist would have no difficulty ignoring these.
"...The surge of AI bots has hit Open Access sites particularly hard, as their mission conflicts with the need to block bots. Consider that Internet Archive can no longer save snapshots of one of the best open-access publishers, MIT Press, because of cloudflare blocking. Who know how many books will be lost this way?  Or consider that the bots took down OAPEN, the worlds most important repository of Scholarly OA books, for a day or two. That's 34,000 books that AI 'checked out' for two days. Or recent outages at Project Gutenberg, which serves 2 million dynamic pages and a half million downloads per day. That's hundreds of thousands of downloads blocked! The link checker at doab-check.ebookfoundation.org (a project I worked on for OAPEN) is now showing 1,534 books that are unreachable due to 'too many requests.' That's 1,534 books that AI has stolen from us! And it's getting worse.
"...The thing that gets me REALLY mad is how unnecessary this carnage is. Project Gutenberg makes all its content available with one click on a file in its feeds directory. OAPEN makes all its books available via an API. There's no need to make a million requests to get this stuff!! Who (or what) is programming these idiot scraping bots? Have they never heard of a sitemap??? Are they summer interns using ChatGPT to write all their code? Who gave them infinite memory, CPUs and bandwidth to run these monstrosities? (Don't answer.)
"We are headed for a world in which all good information is locked up behind secure registration barriers and paywalls, and it won't be to make money, it will be for survival. Captchas will only be solvable by advanced AIs and only the wealthy will be able to use internet libraries."

I know this is the least of our problems right now but do you think the US election results will impact ao3?
I am not a lawyer, nor a founder of AO3, nor a volunteer there, nor a fandom journalist or historian, so I'm pretty far from the best person to ask. I encourage any and all of the above to please chime in with more knowledgeable answers.
That said, I don't think the next few years will probably directly limit AO3 or its umbrella org, the OTW.* But that depends in part on members voting for board members who will uphold the organization's current principles. (Vote! Become a member if you're not already, and vote! Vote in ALL the elections you are eligible for and will be affected by!) And that doesn't mean a bunch of works won't become private, orphaned, or deleted.**
*A couple reasons for my cautious optimism: The OTW was formed with the preservation and maximalist defense of fanworks in mind. So the shifting US cultural norms and increasing purity culture can't easily change the OTW from within (as we've already been seeing in past years when some fans have disliked some content). And in spite of everything scary happening externally (and there is a whole fucking lot), the US still has far more constitutionally enshrined freedom of speech protections than most places in the world. It will take a long time to tear all that down. Some states and locales are doing a lot to try to challenge free speech, especially queer content and sexual content, and there will be more challenges. But many of those challenges will be defeated because of the First Amendment, and it'll take a lot of time and effort to push through any constitutional changes. You can donate to organizations like the ACLU and the EFF to help protect against the erosions of rights, in addition to supporting the OTW and the Internet Archive who work to preserve free speech rights and online rights. (Other suggestions of where to donate or volunteer are welcome in the notes!) Also, perhaps best of all, the OTW is a non-profit who owns their own servers, which makes it MUCH harder to change what they choose to host than if they relied on any external hosting services and/or had advertisers.
**The archive already has had a whole lot of fanworks shift from public to private due to external events, including the AO3 ban in China, and recent AI scraping of web content. I'm sure more AO3 users will choose to make their content private over the next few years out of a fear of potential personal risks of them being found, and/or due to new attempts to ban content. (Some users will also delete their works for similar reasons, though I urge people to consider orphaning them instead!) Downloading for personal use any fanworks you love is always a good idea, and even moreso at a time of great heartbreak and panic, like now.
*hugs* Hang in there, all, and continue to take comfort from AO3 & OTW as you survive the upcoming hard times.

"how do I keep my art from being scraped for AI from now on?"
if you post images online, there's no 100% guaranteed way to prevent this, and you can probably assume that there's no need to remove/edit existing content. you might contest this as a matter of data privacy and workers' rights, but you might also be looking for smaller, more immediate actions to take.
...so I made this list! I can't vouch for the effectiveness of all of these, but I wanted to compile as many options as possible so you can decide what's best for you.
Discouraging data scraping and "opting out"
robots.txt - This is a file placed in a website's home directory to "ask" web crawlers not to access certain parts of a site. If you have your own website, you can edit this yourself, or you can check which crawlers a site disallows by adding /robots.txt at the end of the URL. This article has instructions for blocking some bots that scrape data for AI.
HTML metadata - DeviantArt (i know) has proposed the "noai" and "noimageai" meta tags for opting images out of machine learning datasets, while Mojeek proposed "noml". To use all three, you'd put the following in your webpages' headers:
<meta name="robots" content="noai, noimageai, noml">
Have I Been Trained? - A tool by Spawning to search for images in the LAION-5B and LAION-400M datasets and opt your images and web domain out of future model training. Spawning claims that Stability AI and Hugging Face have agreed to respect these opt-outs. Try searching for usernames!
Kudurru - A tool by Spawning (currently a Wordpress plugin) in closed beta that purportedly blocks/redirects AI scrapers from your website. I don't know much about how this one works.
ai.txt - Similar to robots.txt. A new type of permissions file for AI training proposed by Spawning.
ArtShield Watermarker - Web-based tool to add Stable Diffusion's "invisible watermark" to images, which may cause an image to be recognized as AI-generated and excluded from data scraping and/or model training. Source available on GitHub. Doesn't seem to have updated/posted on social media since last year.
Image processing... things
these are popular now, but there seems to be some confusion regarding the goal of these tools; these aren't meant to "kill" AI art, and they won't affect existing models. they won't magically guarantee full protection, so you probably shouldn't loudly announce that you're using them to try to bait AI users into responding
Glaze - UChicago's tool to add "adversarial noise" to art to disrupt style mimicry. Devs recommend glazing pictures last. Runs on Windows and Mac (Nvidia GPU required)
WebGlaze - Free browser-based Glaze service for those who can't run Glaze locally. Request an invite by following their instructions.
Mist - Another adversarial noise tool, by Psyker Group. Runs on Windows and Linux (Nvidia GPU required) or on web with a Google Colab Notebook.
Nightshade - UChicago's tool to distort AI's recognition of features and "poison" datasets, with the goal of making it inconvenient to use images scraped without consent. The guide recommends that you do not disclose whether your art is nightshaded. Nightshade chooses a tag that's relevant to your image. You should use this word in the image's caption/alt text when you post the image online. This means the alt text will accurately describe what's in the image-- there is no reason to ever write false/mismatched alt text!!! Runs on Windows and Mac (Nvidia GPU required)
Sanative AI - Web-based "anti-AI watermark"-- maybe comparable to Glaze and Mist. I can't find much about this one except that they won a "Responsible AI Challenge" hosted by Mozilla last year.
Just Add A Regular Watermark - It doesn't take a lot of processing power to add a watermark, so why not? Try adding complexities like warping, changes in color/opacity, and blurring to make it more annoying for an AI (or human) to remove. You could even try testing your watermark against an AI watermark remover. (the privacy policy claims that they don't keep or otherwise use your images, but use your own judgment)
given that energy consumption was the focus of some AI art criticism, I'm not sure if the benefits of these GPU-intensive tools outweigh the cost, and I'd like to know more about that. in any case, I thought that people writing alt text/image descriptions more often would've been a neat side effect of Nightshade being used, so I hope to see more of that in the future, at least!

Some more prince/knight au, some Mystra and VR-LA as well as VR-LA and Maxim being painful
Veerle had all but stopped breathing as he trained all of his focus on the energy between his hands. One moment an orb of fire crackled and spat sparks up into the air, the next it grew so bright as to be a burning point of pure radiance, then jolts of white blue sparked from its core as electricity over took the glow. Watching over his progress was his mentor, her majesty Mystra, dark hair spilling over her shoulders and a crown of stars adorning her brow. She drummed her fingers idly on the desk, eyes flicking up from her heir for just a moment.
“Your knight is watching you,” she hummed, brow raising as the ice coalescing between Veerle’s palms burst out, frost swirling up his arms and shard splintering the desk. With a hurried flick of her fingers it vanished, the prince wincing as he rubbed his hands. “Now with some concern. Perhaps we should finish soon, I do believe he’ll be anxious to see if you are well.”
Embarrassment coloured his cheeks at the clumsy display, and he shifted in his seat. His fingers still stung from the cold, the tips numb enough that he wasn’t sure he’d have the dexterity for any more spell craft. He conceded with a sigh.
“Maybe that’s for the best, his presence is… a touch distracting I will admit.” He began tucking away his books, his mentor humming in agreement.
A smile tugged at Mystra’s lips, and he started shoving his things away faster. “It seems so… You know, he isn’t too bad. He holds a high station, is well respected, highly experienced… you could certainly choose worse,” she mused, voice casual but he could feel her stare sharp on his skin.
His brows scrunched at the remark. “Yeah he’s… fine? He’s a very good knight I’ll agree with you there, but I don’t get the impression that’s what you meant.”
“Hm. No.” She didn’t elaborate further, merely gesturing to the door. “Go, see him, I’m sure he’s worried. Well done today, aside from the… accident.”
With a swift thanks he slung his bag over his shoulder and hurried out from the web of desks and shelves and arcane instruments that was Mystra’s study. By the door, standing sentinel still, was his knight. Maxim’s gold armour glinted under the cool starry light of the room, the constellations visible in the metal. His brows were lowered, head dipping in a semi bow as he approached.
“Do we need to visit the physician for your hands?” He asked with no further introduction, falling in step as Veerle turned in the hall.
He rubbed them together still cold and clumsy, but shrugged. “No it’s alright, I’ll just put my gloves on I’ll warm up fast enough. I’m okay.”
Maxim hummed, but didn’t argue further despite glancing over every few seconds while the prince tugged on his gloves. It was an awkward process with his stiff fingers and he faltered as he reach the closures. He cursed when they slipped from his grasp for a third time. Turning, he rose a hand to prompt Maxim to stop. His armour almost felt warm under his fingers.
“Uh, could you, help me? I can’t quite get these…” he offered up his hand, fabric hanging limp around his wrist.
Slowly, the leather and metal over his hands creaking, Maxim carefully steadied his hand. VR-LA found himself glancing away, not wanting to think about why the gentle scrapes of the gauntlets over his skin made his heart patter so swiftly. Deftly, Maxim did up the buttons, taking the other hand and doing the same.
By the time he was done Veerle felt little need for the gloves anymore as warmth tinked his cheeks and flared across the rest of his body.
“Thanks,” he croaked out, taking his hands back a bit too hurriedly.
Maxims hung empty in the air for moment until he stepped back, clasping them stiffly behind his back and bowing his head. “No matter, I am glad to be of service.”

What is an ISP Proxy?
An ISP Proxy is a type of proxy hosted in a data center but uses residential IP addresses. Through ISP proxies, you can take advantage of the speed of data center networks while benefiting from the good reputation of residential IPs.
If ISP proxies are a combination of data center and residential proxies in some way, we might want to first define these terms.
Data Center Proxies are designed with simplicity in mind. In most cases, traffic is forwarded from the proxy client to the data center, where the provider redirects your traffic to the destination. As a result, the traffic originates from one of the IP addresses in the data center, meaning multiple users often share the same IP address. For anyone trying to block their use, this can be a red flag. The main advantages of data center proxies are speed and network stability, as data center networks are very stable and offer gigabit speeds.
Residential Proxies rely on the ability of an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to assign IP addresses tied to specific locations. In other words, you get a legitimate and unique IP address that masks your actual location.
With ISP proxies, you get access to these legitimate and unique IP ranges, and hosting them in a data center provides an additional benefit. This makes ISP proxies particularly effective, offering the benefits of both residential proxy services (such as the ability to surf the web from anywhere and the good reputation of residential IPs) and data center proxy services (such as impressive speed).
---
 Why Do You Need ISP Proxies?
As you can see, ISP proxies combine the undetectable features of residential proxies with the speed of data center proxies. ISP proxy providers achieve this by working with different ISPs to provide IP addresses instead of the user's IP address. This makes them especially useful for various tasks. Let’s take a look at some of them:
 1. Web Scraping
ISP proxies are the best choice for web scraping. They provide fast, undetectable connections that allow you to scrape as much data as needed.
 2. Bypass Rate Limiting Displayed as Residential Connections
To prevent attacks like Denial of Service (DoS), most websites and data centers implement rate limiting. This prevents a single IP address from making too many requests or downloading too much data from a single website. The direct consequence is that if you perform web scraping, you are likely to hit these limits.
However, ISP proxies offer a way to bypass rate limits; they use ISP IP addresses to trick the rate limiter code, making it appear as if the requests are coming from a different residential location.
 3. Accessing Geo-Restricted Content
Like all proxies, ISP proxies allow you to change your location, making it appear as though you are accessing the internet from another country or region.
 4. Bulk Purchasing of Limited Edition Products
E-commerce websites take proactive measures to prevent bots (automated scripts) from purchasing products on their platforms. One common technique is to blacklist IP addresses associated with compulsive purchasing behavior. ISP proxies can help you bypass these restrictions.
---
 A Closer Look at ISP Proxies
As mentioned earlier, ISP proxies are hosted in data centers and provide internet service provider IP addresses to the destination. Since ISPs own large pools of public IP addresses, it is nearly impossible to trace the computer using the proxy.
While the main benefit is that they are ideal for web scraping, they also provide other features such as:
- Security: End-to-end encryption, firewalls, web filtering, auditing, and analysis.
- Performance: Web caching and high-speed internet from data centers to destinations.
The uniqueness of ISP proxies is that they are the only proxies that directly deal with ISPs to provide the best anonymous connection. While data center proxies are a good option for providing speed and privacy at a lower price, ISP proxies combine the ability to offer speed and anonymity, giving them a significant advantage.
---
 Use Cases
The speed and undetectability of ISP proxies make them the preferred choice for large-scale network operations such as web scraping, SEO monitoring, social media monitoring, and ad verification. Let’s take a deeper look at each use case.
 1. Web Scraping
Web scraping is the process of analyzing HTML code to extract the required data from websites.
While the concept is simple, large-scale web scraping requires proxy servers to change your location because many websites display different pages based on your location Additionally, to scrape large volumes of data within a reasonable timeframe, proxies need to be extremely fast. Because of these reasons, ISP proxies are considered the best choice for web scraping.
 2. SEO Monitoring
SEO monitoring involves checking the performance of your website, content, articles, etc., in search engine results. However, search engine results are influenced by your location, and the cookies attached to your web browser can affect the displayed results. To bypass these issues, proxies are needed to anonymize your connection or simulate a user from another global location.
Moreover, SEO monitoring involves frequent access to the same webpage, which could lead to your IP address being blacklisted or subjected to rate limits. Therefore, it’s best to use proxies when performing SEO monitoring.
 3. Social Media Monitoring
Similar to SEO monitoring, activities in social media monitoring can raise suspicion. As a result, you are forced to comply with the host's rules to avoid being blocked or banned from the platform. For example, managing multiple accounts with the same IP address would certainly raise red flags.
In such cases, ISP proxies can be particularly useful because they fool social network algorithms about your IP address, so you won’t be blocked in the end.
 4. Ad Verification
As a marketer, you may want to verify that your advertising partners are delivering on their promises and that the statistics they provide are legitimate.
Ad verification involves scanning the web to check if the ads displayed on various websites match campaign standards, appear on the right sites, and reach the target audience. Since these scans need to cover millions of websites, ISP proxies are ideal to ensure that your ad verification process runs quickly and without being blocked due to excessive use of IP addresses.
---
 Conclusion
ISP proxies combine the best of both worlds by offering the speed and stability of data center proxies along with the anonymity and legitimacy of residential proxies. This makes them the perfect tool for activities that require speed, anonymity, and high-volume operations, such as web scraping, SEO monitoring, social media management, and ad verification. By working with ISPs to provide legitimate and unique IP addresses, ISP proxies help users bypass restrictions, access geo-restricted content, and operate more efficiently online.

Amazon Product Review Data Scraping | Scrape Amazon Product Review Data
Tumblr media
In the vast ocean of e-commerce, Amazon stands as an undisputed titan, housing millions of products and catering to the needs of countless consumers worldwide. Amidst this plethora of offerings, product reviews serve as guiding stars, illuminating the path for prospective buyers. Harnessing the insights embedded within these reviews can provide businesses with a competitive edge, offering invaluable market intelligence and consumer sentiment analysis.
In the realm of data acquisition, web scraping emerges as a potent tool, empowering businesses to extract structured data from the labyrinthine expanse of the internet. When it comes to Amazon product review data scraping, this technique becomes particularly indispensable, enabling businesses to glean actionable insights from the vast repository of customer feedback.
Understanding Amazon Product Review Data Scraping
Amazon product review data scraping involves the automated extraction of reviews, ratings, and associated metadata from Amazon product pages. This process typically entails utilizing web scraping tools or custom scripts to navigate through product listings, access review sections, and extract relevant information systematically.
The Components of Amazon Product Review Data:
Review Text: The core content of the review, containing valuable insights, opinions, and feedback from customers regarding their experience with the product.
Rating: The numerical or star-based rating provided by the reviewer, offering a quick glimpse into the overall satisfaction level associated with the product.
Reviewer Information: Details such as the reviewer's username, profile information, and sometimes demographic data, which can be leveraged for segmentation and profiling purposes.
Review Date: The timestamp indicating when the review was posted, aiding in trend analysis and temporal assessment of product performance.
The Benefits of Amazon Product Review Data Scraping
1. Market Research and Competitive Analysis:
By systematically scraping Amazon product reviews, businesses can gain profound insights into market trends, consumer preferences, and competitor performance. Analyzing the sentiment expressed in reviews can unveil strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats within the market landscape, guiding strategic decision-making processes.
2. Product Enhancement and Innovation:
Customer feedback serves as a treasure trove of suggestions and improvement opportunities. By aggregating and analyzing product reviews at scale, businesses can identify recurring themes, pain points, and feature requests, thus informing product enhancement strategies and fostering innovation.
3. Reputation Management:
Proactively monitoring and addressing customer feedback on Amazon can be instrumental in maintaining a positive brand image. Through sentiment analysis and sentiment-based alerts derived from scraped reviews, businesses can swiftly identify and mitigate potential reputation risks, thereby safeguarding brand equity.
4. Pricing and Promotion Strategies:
Analyzing Amazon product reviews can provide valuable insights into perceived product value, price sensitivity, and the effectiveness of promotional campaigns. By correlating review sentiments with pricing fluctuations and promotional activities, businesses can refine their pricing strategies and promotional tactics for optimal market positioning.
Ethical Considerations and Best Practices
While Amazon product review data scraping offers immense potential, it's crucial to approach it ethically and responsibly. Adhering to Amazon's terms of service and respecting user privacy are paramount. Businesses should also exercise caution to ensure compliance with relevant data protection regulations, such as the GDPR.
Moreover, the use of scraped data should be guided by principles of transparency and accountability. Clearly communicating data collection practices and obtaining consent whenever necessary fosters trust and credibility.
Conclusion
Amazon product review data scraping unlocks a wealth of opportunities for businesses seeking to gain a competitive edge in the dynamic e-commerce landscape. By harnessing the power of automated data extraction and analysis, businesses can unearth actionable insights, drive informed decision-making, and cultivate stronger relationships with their customers. However, it's imperative to approach data scraping with integrity, prioritizing ethical considerations and compliance with regulatory frameworks. Embraced judiciously, Amazon product review data scraping can be a catalyst for innovation, growth, and sustainable business success in the digital age.

If you search for the phrase “abortion pills” on the messaging service Telegram, an array of public channels and groups pop up. Some have names like “Buy Abortion Pills” or “Abortion pills Mifepristone Misoprostol” while others offer advice on symptoms and best practices “after the pregnancy comes out.” On May 3, a post on “ABORTION PILLS MARKET” included a photo of a blister pack labeled as abortion pills, alongside the caption, “We are legit.”
There are currently more than 200 public groups and channels on Telegram that explicitly mention selling abortion pills in their name or description, a WIRED investigation found. At the end of May, the last month for which we have complete data, 57 of the 211 groups we uncovered were active, with at least one message sent in that month.
Activity found on the platform related to selling abortion pills traces back to at least 2016, and many of the channels and groups cater to customers around the world. In the year since the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in June 2022, though, there’s a new focus on marketing to people in the United States, according to WIRED’s review of roughly 47,000 public messages scraped from these channels. And in general, public activity on Telegram related to abortion pills has been exploding since last summer.
“Since its creation, Telegram has actively moderated harmful content including the sale of medications,” says Telegram spokesperson Remi Vaughn. “Telegram's moderators use a combination of proactive monitoring of public chats in addition to accepting user reports in order to remove content that breaches our terms of service.”
Shady drug sellers and scams are nothing new on digital platforms. A nearly universal experience of the early consumer internet, after all, was receiving spam emails claiming to offer penis enlargement pills. And in the decades since, dark web markets have fueled illegal distribution of drugs globally. Like other prescription drugs, though, abortifacients are legal in some countries but not others. Furthermore, in some places they can be prescribed for certain purposes but not others, leaving patients to potentially seek ways to fill in the gaps for their own care. In the US, access to reproductive care, including abortifacients, varies widely from state to state.
Despite the clear uptick in activity on Telegram related to abortion pills, researchers say that they don’t see evidence of a massive new movement to illegally sell abortifacients to Americans. Kat Green, an abortion access researcher and founder of the online data analysis platform Endora, says that illegal sales of abortifacients, and corresponding questions about legitimacy and safety, aren’t currently central topics in US abortion access work. In part, this is likely because it’s still legal in many US states for patients to get abortion pills by mail. And prescribed use of these pills, also known as medication abortion, is markedly on the rise in the US. But as new and pending legal challenges threaten to further curtail access, illicit sales could eventually expand.
Analysis of frequently used phrases in the Telegram message trove WIRED collected shows that a large number of these groups and channels don’t just claim to sell abortion pills. Phrases like “weight loss,” “muscle mass,” and “erection pill” were among the 10 most popular two-word phrases that appeared in the data set. And thousands of additional messages mentioned “benzos,” “painkillers,” “Xanax,” “weed,” “coke,” and “guns.” In all, at least a quarter of the channels appear to be hawking more than just abortifacients.
Hundreds of messages from the data that contained pricing information indicate that the average cost of purchasing a purported pack of abortion pills on Telegram is currently $135.
WIRED’s investigation also indicates that the abortion pill ecosystem on Telegram is likely a small world. Analysis of the members and administrators who send messages in the groups and channels shows that many of the accounts are likely controlled by the same individuals. For example, a user going by the name Dr. Pooja Gupta has sent 1,500 messages across nine channels or groups advertising the sale of abortion pills. Dr. Pooja uses a WhatsApp number that is referenced by administrators in 14 additional channels. And some of them use similar names like Doctor Jain and Doctor Reenu. Many of these messages also referenced the same website.
After joining several of Dr. Pooja Gupta’s channels, WIRED reporters received a private Telegram message from a user known as Manisha Gupta offering medication abortion for $90. When WIRED reporters expressed interest in making a purchase, a person prepared the order and sent an image showing a blister pack of pills, and an envelope with that day's date as well as the address WIRED provided for shipment. The return address written on the envelope was a location in Mumbai, India.
Still messaging on Telegram, a person then sent account information for Punjab National Bank and directed WIRED to submit payment through a service called Remitly. WIRED reporters did not complete the transaction. When asked whether they have had more US-based customers in recent months, the person said, “since new laws I am send to America much more.”
Some groups on Telegram have US-specific names or descriptions, like “Abortion Pills in Republican States,” but most have more generic names and claim to deliver to dozens of countries. For instance, one of the largest and most active channels in the data set dates from August 2021 and is apparently specifically geared toward delivering abortion pills to Dubai, Kuwait, Qatar, and the Philippines—all countries where legal access to abortion is restricted.
Last June, researchers from the security firm DarkOwl noticed a sharp increase in discussions on the dark web about connecting abortion-seekers in the US with abortifacients and other resources. Some vendors that already sold illegal drugs said they would begin selling medication abortion as well. At the time, though, the researchers said that they didn’t actually see abortion pills widely available for sale on most dark web markets, but that “they are available for purchase via threads in discussion forums, as well as classified-style advertisements on transient paste services.”
Ian Gray, director of analysis and research at the security firm Flashpoint, says that turning points like the Covid-19 pandemic or the fall of Roe for the US can spark trends in digital scams and illicit online sales. But a survey Gray conducted for WIRED of dark web advertising targeted at the US over the last year did not reveal a dramatic spike in content related to abortifacients.
“At a high level, it's difficult to identify a significant increase in chatter related to abortion pills due to Roe v Wade being overturned last year,” Gray says. He notes, though, that “there are a limited number of posts within the past year in marketplaces, which may indicate demand. Most posts, at least on Twitter and some within Telegram, are in Brazilian Portuguese, likely due to a ban on abortion pills.”
As with many medical procedures, the stakes are extremely high in medication abortion. But the patchwork of laws and access in the US could make the landscape particularly fraught for patients in need who may eventually turn to illicit markets out of desperation.
