The website put online by the anti-abortion association Texas Right to Life ends up in the middle of the road to collect reports from citizens on who, in various ways, helps women to abort, under the new abortion law in force in Texas.

The company GoDaddy, the web host that hosted the prolifewhistleblower.com site on its servers, on Friday issued the eviction notice to Texas Right to Life for "violation of the terms of service", allowing 24 hours to move on the servers of another company.

The site was welcomed by Epik, a provider that in the past has already given a home to the social Parler, popular with the American far right, which had been shut down by Amazon Web Services in the aftermath of the attack on Capitol Hill, and the 8chan forum, used among others by Brenton Tarrant to announce in 2019 the massacre in two mosques in ChristChurch in New Zealand, and by Patrick Crucius again to announce, two years ago, the shooting in which he killed 20 people in a supermarket El Paso in Texas. In the last few hours, however, the abortion whistleblower site has also been taken offline by Epik, again due to the violation of the terms of service, which prohibit the collection of information about other people without their consent.

In recent days, the anti-abortion site had also ended up in the crosshairs of the social people. Since last Wednesday, when the new law in Texas came into force that prohibits the termination of pregnancy after the sixth week and which allows private citizens to sue anyone who favors abortion, from the clinic employee to the taxi driver who accompanies a woman to have an abortion, the site was flooded with false reports sent by users of social networks TikTok, Twitter and Reddit. On these platforms, some developers have also made programs available to automatically send bogus leaks.
