Hackers have got all of online adultery site Ashley Madison's data

[Anonymous]

What about SO's who created fake profiles to see if their spouse signed up? Outed

People who were just curious? Outed

Cheating is a violation of a contract and should be punishable by law.

That said, as an unmarried person, I created a fake account on AM to check it out. And I'm pretty sure I found my boss' profile on there! Same town, age, sign, and other personal indicators that it was him...

I used all fake info inc. a fake email so I imagine, if serious cheaters did the same, that this hack isn't going to reveal much.

By that logic everyone should rob banks and rape because they need stuff not available to them.

+1 and Amen!

They are releasing the credit card info. Real names are used for credit card.

I have an account and never had to pay for anything on the site (women have free accounts). I used a fake name, a dummy email account, a different birthday, and different town/suburb. I'm pretty pretty sure I was not the biggest BSer on there. At the time, I saw trying not to be recognizable in case some one wa s trying to look me up, like the PPs mentioned, but I'm so relieved I was paranoid.

What gets me is that the company apparently told its users it was deleting credit card info, yet didn't do so and kept it thus enabling the hackers to move forward with this blackmail.

Personally, nothing online is ever guaranteed so if these cheaters were so stupid to trust a public website, I am low on sympathy.

Sorry.

No it's not murder, but it is abuse.


It is horrible, but it is not abuse. Talk to somebody who is assaulted on a regular basis.


I don't know. I think cheating (at least long term) fits the definition of abuse better than physical assault, IMO. A spouse who has been hit can also end the relationship right away while someone whose been cheated on for 10 years can't leave the relationship until they find out.

If you are in a sexless marriage where the other has checked out that is a form of abuse. It is not abuse to have an affair. Most of the people being cheated on could care less about the act, it just the embarrassment of the thing.

So where, when, how is the info being published? Agree that this will be interesting!

[Anonymous]

Affairs are gross, thank God we have hackers working for the greater good. Fakers are gonna be outted.

[Anonymous]

They might have some fake info but the exchanged pictures are going to be pure gold!

Two wrongs don't make a right.

You don't cheat - you get a divorce.

Then you ask for an open marriage.

Your excuse making is ridiculous. Be a grownup and make honest, hard decisions, or be a coward.
