(LifeSiteNews) — The American College of Pediatricians (ACPeds), a national non-profit organization that opposes transgender ideology and abortion, said last week it has been subjected to “an ongoing, coordinated, malicious cyberattack” meant “to intimidate and incapacitate.” The attack began just weeks after a federal judge agreed to halt the FDA approval of the abortion drug mifepristone following a lawsuit by ACPeds and other pro-life doctors and groups.
“Since April 24, the American College of Pediatricians has been facing an ongoing, coordinated, malicious cyberattack by hackers on our key technology structures, databases, and our financial accounts,” said ACPeds executive director Dr. Jill Simons, a board-certified pediatrician, in a May 5 statement.
“This attack was intended to intimidate and incapacitate, and it will be costly to recover, but we will not be intimidated by these illegal bullying tactics that amount to a hate crime,” she continued.
“We will continue to promote the health and well-being of children by protecting the rights of born and preborn children, promoting biological integrity, and defending conscience rights for healthcare professionals,” Dr. Simons said.
