Meta's Facebook and Instagram networks display ads related to children and pregnancy targeted at women who have lost pregnancies, negatively affecting their mental health. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
British woman Sammy Clarkson emphasized that after losing five pregnancies, such ads were difficult for her. A woman named Tanya accused Facebook of using personal data for advertising purposes and took legal action.
As a result, the company offered some users the option to stop seeing such ads. A woman named Rianon Lawson also expressed that after losing her child, she continued to see ads for baby products and pregnancy apps on her phone, considering this situation very painful.
Although Meta stated that users have the ability to limit ads, many emphasize that these settings are not sufficiently effective. Thus, the automatic display of ads targeted at women who have lost pregnancies negatively impacts their mental health, and this issue requires more careful consideration by the company.
