Big news item: Customers of Ashley Madison, a Toronto-based dating (euphemism) site, were caught with their pants down. How embarrassing! The site was hacked, and the names, email addresses, physical descriptions, and detailed sexual preferences of 30 million customers were made public. Some people may have been the targets of blackmail, and two customers have, reportedly, ended their lives.
In case you are the only person in the Internet world who hasn't heard of Ashley Madison, it is a site for folks looking to have anonymous affairs. Ashley Madison's motto: "Life is short. Have an affair." Authorities in Toronto are conducting an investigation of criminal activity, but there is little doubt that millions of lives have been ruined.
