Planned Parenthood baby organ harvesters confirmed today that their databases were hacked.
Planned Parenthood is well-known for its abortion services and more recently for baby organ harvesting.
The Examiner reported:
Planned Parenthood confirmed that its online databases have been hacked, potentially exposing employees’ personal information.
The women’s health and abortion provider said Monday it has reported the crime to the Department of Justice and the FBI.
“Extremists who oppose Planned Parenthood’s mission and services have launched an attack on our information systems, and have called on the world’s most sophisticated hackers to assist them in breaching our systems and threatening the privacy and safety of our staff members,” said Planned Parenthood Executive Vice President Dawn Laguens Monday afternoon.
“We are working with top leaders in this field to manage these attacks,” she said. “We treat matters of safety and security with the utmost importance, and are taking every measure possible to mitigate these criminal efforts to undermine our mission and services.”
A group of hackers who oppose the group for its abortion services is taking credit for the hack, first sharing it with the Daily Dot. One of the hackers, identified only as “E,” said it will be “interesting to see what surfaces when [Planned Parenthood] is stripped naked and exposed to the public.”
