Looks like Hackers made good on their threat to expose Ashley Madison's membership data. Authorities are blaming this on the Chinese but many don't believe it. Authorities lying ... no, say its not true !!!
The rumour is its an offshoot of one of the man-hate groups known as SJWs. Feminist man-haters out to destroy men using the internet. They targeted 2 sites: AshleyMadison and EstablishedMen. The same company also has a site called CougarLife which wasn't targeted. The first two are primarily for men looking for sex (cheat, sugar baby) the latter is for women looking for sex (cougar ... obviously) and wasn't. Apparently the vast majority of members on AM were men; which kinda surprised me cause I would have thought it evenly split but apparently wasn't.
The corporate owners said:
“This event is not an act of hacktivism, it is an act of criminality. It is an illegal action against the individual members of AshleyMadison.com, as well as any freethinking people who choose to engage in fully lawful online activities,” the company said in a statement. “The criminal, or criminals, involved in this act have appointed themselves as the moral judge, juror, and executioner, seeing fit to impose a personal notion of virtue on all of society. We will not sit idly by and allow these thieves to force their personal ideology on citizens around the world.”
All I got to say is there are a lot of fucked up people in the world. Women tend to blame men for everything but there are a lot of fucked up women too. They going to destroy thousands of marriages just to prove a point: men want sex. Duh.
If anyone here was on Ashley Madison you might want to be aware of the potential fallout; your private info may have just gotten dumped.

This site below apparently allows you to check if your email is in there. You're relatively safe if you used a junk email account and never bought anything. I'm not really sure what the fallout is going to be for the average users. The database is like 10GB and millions of accounts so unless someone goes looking for you or someone takes the data and makes it searchable it may not mean anything.

I was a member for a couple years. I only received messages from providers.
Perhaps because of where I lived.
