Somewhere a senator is sweating way harder about their finasteride prescription showing up in a leak than they ever did about voting against data privacy legislation lol

The breach itself is pretty standard... names, birthdays, prescription info from a third party vendor. But RXNT waited until the last possible day to tell the attending physicians office. The breaches happened March 1 and 3 and congress is just now finding out in may.

Maybe now they might take this stuff seriously?

One can only hope.
