Cheating on your spouse used to be so much easier. Okay, that’s the last joke I’ll make about the Ashley Madison hack – the latest news is too frightening to make light of. The report that the long-rumored release of data on more than 32 million people should scare everyone, whether they have ever been on the site (whose slogan is “Life is short. Have an affair”) or not.
From The Guardian:
The 10 gigabyte database file was released on BitTorrent and the dark web on Tuesday night and includes email and postal addresses, user descriptions, weight and height, encrypted passwords, partial credit card numbers and transaction details.
While information can be faked on the site, this looks to be real and has been independently confirmed by several parties.
