Fool me once, shame on me Fool me twice, shame on you. But fool me thrice, and we'll have to apply a complex formula involving a differentiated constant and some electrodes to figure out how much shame is inherent in the system, or something... I don't know... I wasn't really paying attention. Pub?

Ashley Madison: 'Suicides' over website hack
Two individuals associated with the leak of Ashley Madison customer details are reported to have taken their lives, according to police in Canada.
The police in Toronto gave no further information about the deaths.
Ashley Madison's Canadian parent company Avid Life Media is offering a C$500,000 (£240,000) reward for information on the hackers, they added.
Details of more than 33m accounts were stolen from the website, which offers users the chance to have an affair.
Addressing the hackers, known as The Impact Team, acting staff superintendent Bryce Evans of the Toronto police said: "I want to make it very clear to you your actions are illegal and we will not be tolerating them. This is your wake-up call."
Police are seeking information from members of the wider hacker community that might aid their investigation.
The breach was "very sophisticated", said Detective Menard from the technological crime unit of Toronto Police.
(continued, then there's the lawyers...they're smiling they are....probably funded the hack themselves...)

"Two individuals associated"?
No other info on exactly who though! Were these exposed customers of AM? Employees implicated in giving the hackers access? Suspected hackers? A rather vague story.

Re: Ashley Madison infidelity site's customer data 'leaked'
These Madison people ought to be encouraged to open a terrorist site.
For people wanting to commit atrocities.
If people are stupid enough to give their real details to them when seeking an affair, you should get quite a few islamic loonies prepared to do the same.
Or combine the two. Place a "seventy virgins seek crazy spotty teenager" ad on the infidelity site.

While there is a market for shit, there will be assholes to supply it.

Would be interesting to see how many high level proponents of veganism liked the Pasta Bolognese recipe.JimC wrote:Hackers love showing off. This hack was bound to create a vast amount of media attention, which made it a perfect scenario. Compare it to hacking a site where people swap recipes or knitting patterns. Ho hum would be the media response...
