[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There were bots, yes. Even the employees admitted to engaging with male customers with fake profiles.

A couple things:

1) people calling out the name-searching of customers as a "witch hunt because we're all sinners" - F that. We all have choices. Many of us don't make choices that hurt and betray people we (allegedly) love.

2) the Christian social media guy calling the site's existence as "evil." Dude, no one made you sign up and cheat on your wife. Own up to your own choices. Ashley Madison still exists because of willing customers, not because the creators are evil. I don't blame the site for existing - no one's forced to sign up. There is no such thing as "satan" - take accountability for your own hurtful choices.

3) I have no ill judgement for couples that have open marriages/relationships, or for people that get divorced. I will always have ill thoughts over people who cheat. It isn't the physical act - it's the deception, betrayal, and outright disregard for the person they say they care about.

The documentary was too soft on the men who signed up.

They chose to focus on a guy who committed suici!!de and a younger guy who “confessed” and was forgiven by his wife. And really played up the “evil” CEO. Yes, the CEO was a horrible person but these married men on the site going behind their wives backs  are also horrible. The betrayal, not to mention unknowingly exposing them to STIs. Very likely many of the men who signed up for the site also did other things with hookers, etc. too.[/quote]
I’m surprised they didn’t throw Josh Duggar in there. He had moved to DC and was starting a political career as a lobbyist for the FRC. Ashley Madison was his second scandal, which leaked not long after reports he’d molested his sisters came to light. Now he’s serving time for having CSA material. [/quote]
