The 'abortion clinic' category in Google Maps is intended for clinics that offer the procedure, but other organizations are still showing up.
In 2018, it was found that Google Maps delivered inaccurate results for people searching for abortion clinics in certain areas, often leading them to centers that don't offer abortions, and even to anti-abortion organizations, according to a February Gizmodo report. A new Vice report suggests that Google Maps still struggles with the differentiation, although it reports that Google Maps has gotten better since 2018.
