Women 'using web for abortions'

Some women in countries where abortion is restricted are using the internet to buy medication enabling them to abort a pregnancy at home, the BBC has learned.

Women in Northern Ireland and over 70 countries with restrictions have used one of the main websites, Women on Web.

A British Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology review of 400 customers found nearly 11% had needed a surgical procedure after taking the medication.

The website says it can help reduce the problems linked with unsafe abortions.

Almost 200 women answered questions about their experiences - 58% said they were just grateful to have been able to have had an abortion in this way, while 31% had felt stressed but found the experience acceptable.

Women on Web posts the drugs only to countries where abortion is heavily restricted, and to women who declare they are less than nine weeks' pregnant.

A US woman, who has a rare medical complication meaning pregnancy is life-threatening to her, described her experience when she used the website while in Thailand. "Women on Web kept in contact with me via e-mail. The medication arrived through Customs, properly blister-packed, with complete paperwork and a doctor's signature.

"Medication from other websites came in unmarked bottles with no instructions or paperwork - it was quite frightening.
"I was not very far along - only three or four weeks. It went smoothly for me.
"I think it's very important women have this resource to turn to in that situation - and they can need it for a number of reasons."

Belgium, when that was up.

Belgium was on the clearence isle -nods-

The best was that bastard who created a site consisting solely of a million pixels and then sold each pixel for GBP1, minimum batch being 10 pixels. The idea was to make a million.

The l'il fucker succeeded as well, proving people will pay for anything.

Wish I'd thought of it.

I own my complete name @hotmail and @gmail and I'm considering putting them up for sale on Ebay and then alerting the press.

Who knows, on a slow news day...

I don't get out on the internet much, but right here on NSG I heard about this:

Parents post baby on internet for 1 euro (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=557298)

Apparently, the case has been dropped, and the boy is back with his parents! Yay!

It's some blog, but certainly the case was dropped. (http://www.630ched.com/News/Oddities/Article.aspx?id=32794 [/URL)

Happy ending. We should have more happy endings on NSG. :)

You mean the million dollar home page (http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com/)

That idea could have got him exactly nothing. I guess he started a "gold-rush" and got lucky.

There could be an after-story to it. I'm not looking. I've done my work for this thread.

Baz, the secret of such success is this: when you have time on your hands, and are feeling creative ... take a notepad and a pen and go sit somewhere quiet.

Is it off the same site as the abortion pills?

Pathetic. I could have a woman who knows how to fuck for $200, why would I have a woman who hasn't even done the deed once, for £10,000 ?

Also, does she come with a certificate of virginity? And is it signed by a doctor, her daddy, or a priest?

I think that the German baby for sale was one of the strangest things/people I've seen on sale on the interwebs. And of course, the mail-order spouses. I don't understand that one bit.

Are you kidding me? What shitty parents.

It took a while, but it seems sense has prevailed. That was never anything but a bad joke by the parents ...

You have a link for that? I think that would be an interesting read.

I saw it. Just because YOU can't afford to buy the internet doesn't mean a consortium of really rich fucks can't.

Sure, they won't buy ALL of it, but they could seriously bias the experience of many ordinary users.

Oh, what am I talking about. We NSGers put up with the vagaries of Jolt. Screw the dumb surfers, let them eat Fox. :p

The wall fitting is just weird, but the comment really nails it! Would you rather go left, and touch up the boy, or go right and touch up the girl? Or ... no, I really don't want to operate that switch.
I'd rather read my Bible by candlelight!

This was discussed here on General, right? 'Cuz I seem to recall that it was here I read about it...

I found someone's soul for sale on ebay some time ago...

I remember seeing ad for fully armed cruiser once.

It was discussed a bit. The discussion died on page three.

It's a funny old place, NSG. How to tell if a thread will go a thousand posts or just get a collective "meh." That one could have been dynamite

*blames self*

I'll link it again, understanding that YOU followed the links, just for other posters who might be bored. It would be great if people followed up stories of 'crimes' when the judgement comes down:

NSG thread about baby offered on ebay. (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=557298)

Best source I can find on resolution of "child protection" case: CNET-news (http://news.cnet.com/8301-10784_3-9984160-7.html?hhTest=1)

It seems AAP released this story on 4 July, and a whole bunch of blogs and so on carried it. But it doesn't seem to be on AAP any more.

Conspiracy! Pranking ebay not cool, perhaps? Intelligence services around the world concerned at the prospect of having to surveille ebay, having their highly-trained surveillance officers exposed to "Comfortable vinyl sofa, leopardskin pattern, some fire damage, 1€, buyer pays postage" ads.

It's news when it piques the interest I guess. When it turns out to be dull and stupid, and government agents do the sensible thing ... big yawn.

Links or it's a lie!

That's the fun of this thread, you see. It's "show and tell."

I can't buy access to Jessica Alba's vagina, so the OP title is a lie.
