If a foreign intelligence agency were to cross-index the Ashley Madison files against the security clearance info obtained via the OPM hack, it might show some blackmail opportunities ...

Seems to me our government should do this and then fire all of the people who callously put our national security at risk by joining such a sickening website!

People looking to have affairs are not a threat to national security. Given that 70% of AM users are men, it would be reasonable to assume that 40% of the users, or 80% of the males never actually succeed in starting an affair on AM. There is nothing to get all worked up about. If you are disgusted by it, don't sign up. I'm sure there are a lot of good and decent people in sexless marriages who browse AM to try to meet someone. Don't take it so seriously.

If everyone already knows something, you can't use it to blackmail someone. "Give me the classified data or I'll tell everyone about your Ashley Madison account!" Too late, chump, everyone in the entire world has already been told - duh.
