Hackers are threatening to expose information on over 30 million users of AshleyMadison.com, a website for cheating spouses famous for its tagline “Life is short. Have an Affair.”
A group of hackers called The Impact Team reportedly has posted some data already and is demanding that parent company Avid Life Media shut down AshleyMadison and a sister site, EstablishedMen.com, according to Krebs On Security, a blog run by former Washington Post reporter Brian Krebs.
The Toronto-based Avid Life Media said Monday it closed the breach in its computer system and was working with law enforcement. How the hackers got in, Avid Life didn’t say.
In a manifesto obtained by Krebs, the hackers said: “Avid Life Media has been instructed to take Ashley Madison and Established Men offline permanently in all forms, or we will release all customer records, including profiles with all the customers’ secret sexual fantasies and matching credit card transactions, real names and addresses, and employee documents and emails.”

Once the names are exposed, it should be the final nail in the coffin of Bill and Hillary's marriage......For sure this time.

These slime don’t have 30M users.
To: Beave Meister
I hope they do release the names, as well as all of the personal info those cheaters provided.
People who use such services are despicable.

Really, I had two honest to goodness questions when I read this story today.
1) What is AshleyMadison.com?
2) They have NOW MANY MEMBERS???
Good grief is all I can say.

Good! Between this and the recent Sony hack, I’m starting to warm up to the hacker crowd!

I'm sure that the ChiComs could have a field day cross-referencing this data with the data they have of which government employees have security clearances.

I have to wonder if Revrunt Sharpton might have anything to do with that?

You are a fool if you believe that anything you enter into a data base is “secure”.
