Right, but the example you gave never happened, you're thinking of when they were court ordered to hand over messaging data of a specific individual. This is normal in any messaging service and very different than actually looking through profiles to identify individuals who may have had an abortion.

And I don't want to come across as unsympathetic here, the laws in those states are truly fucked up, but of course they're following the laws and the court ordered data requests of the countries they operate in for citizens in that country. You wouldn't blame a doctor for not performing abortions in a state where it's illegal to perform abortions right?
