A little town called “Methven” is being blacklisted by Facebook over
some kind of concerns that people searching for it are searching for
meths
<https://www.nzherald.co.nz/travel/travel-news/methven-hit-by-facebook-blackout-over-illicit-drug-meth-confusion/UZ7KV7MNQNFEDNHLXQQWG3YPUA/>.

The funny thing is, among the searches that are not blacklisted, “The
Crystal Method” is one name that does actually have a non-spurious
connection with the controlled substance. Yet Facebook seems to have
no trouble with that.
