"An investigation by ProPublica found online pharmacies that sell abortion medication such as mifepristone and misoprostol are sharing sensitive data, including users' web addresses, relative location, and search data, with Google and other third-party sites — which allows the data to be recoverable through law enforcement requests."

When a doctor writes an electronic script, it goes to Surescripts LLC before it arrives at the pharmacy.
The DEA tried to make Surescripts irrelevant in 2010 with standards that would allow MDs to send scripts directly to pharmacies. But that failed.
The FTC tried to sue Surescripts a couple years ago but that failed.
Surescripts has everyone's Rx history and answers to no one.
