A TEENAGER has pleaded guilty to a cyber attack on the Mumsnet, which caused the parenting website to reset the passwords of 7.7 million members.

The charges refer to ‘computer intrusion and damage to network profiles’ in July and August 2015.

Buchanan will be sentenced on August 2 at Guildford Magistrates’ Court.
