In September 2021, the Republican Party of Texas was reportedly hacked by a group identifying as "Anonymous" in retaliation for the state’s abortion ban. The attack included a website defacement followed by the leak of data and documents, some of which originated from hosting provider Epik. The incident reportedly exposed more than 72,000 unique email addresses across various tables. In some cases, the data also included names, geographic location details, IP addresses, and browser user agents.
