Despite "The Red Pill" documentary empirically being one of the hottest Kickstarters currently running, there's complete radio silence from almost every mainstream news source. No platform?

"A lot of workplaces think it's acceptable for women to work flexibly, but they have a problem with men". This is apparently a problem because it might inconvenience the primary victims, their wives.

I got accused of having an account on that site because I said the hackers should be the ones sued, not AM. I personally think its wrong to cheat, for ethical reasons, but they aren't doing anything illegal or immoral by my standards.

More pain is being caused by the cheating being revealed than by being kept quiet. The people who did it are in it for getting lulz, not for SJW reasons. The best way to get away with ruining other people's lives for your own "lulz" is to do something like this, because the common herd will defend you for being "moral".

Plus the release of personal like this could bring serious problems, but cheating is worse (sarcasm)

The age of the internet has ruined a lot of things. There should be laws which say people can't lose their jobs due to sex tapes, etc. People still do, despite gasp the fact that people want to have sex, and engage in it daily!

The internet has revealed how we truly judge and condemn each other, while paying lip service to beliefs about freedom of expression, rights, and all that other nonsense.

[–]rg57 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

they aren't doing anything illegal

That depends on where they live, and who they're seeking to meet.

At least one person has claimed they risk execution, and has fled their country.

[–]mwobuddy 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

You're right. I was considering it only from the western hemisphere perspective.

It's strange that over here women can cheat and its the man's fault, but if a man cheats he's a monster.

[–]gibsonunderscore -3 points-2 points-1 points 10 years ago (9 children) | Copy Link

The cheating men and women on that website have no one but themselves to blame. It's no different than being caught by the spouse sneaking to a motel off the turnpike. You got busted because someone cared more about the person you were cheating on that you did, asshole. Go get yourself a new wife.

[–]fourthwallcrisis 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

Breaking the law and potentially causing real-life harm and injury because you find something immoral is pretty fucked up. Just because I find things offensive doesn't mean I break the law to prevent it - I don't doxx people I find objectionable because it's illegal and unethical.

[–]gibsonunderscore -1 points0 points1 point 10 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Wow. Am I the only one thinking about the people these dicks are cheating on? Isn't anyone concerned about what's fair for the people that this website is alienating?

I wouldn't have hacked Ashley Madison myself, but I would be delighted to see the website collapse. I hope the lawsuit bankrupts them.

There's no moral high ground for the "victims" of the data lift. They should have been using their time and money to rescue their marriage instead of blowing it online on some nobody-knows for weird online sex things and "discreet" meetings. Adulterers get what they get. I'll write them a f*ken sympathy card.

I mean, we're talking about a website whose logo has a single wedding band! Instead of, y'know. Two. To represent marriage. "Life is short. Have an affair"? Go fucking kayaking or something.

No moral high ground.

[–]rg57 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

You're assuming a lot. For example, there are people in open marriages on the site. They aren't cheating on anyone. Why should their information be divulged?

[–]gibsonunderscore 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

That's ridiculous. If they're in an open marriage, why would they need to use a discreet website?

[–]gibsonunderscore -1 points0 points1 point 10 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

Also, am I the only one who is going to point out that Ashley Madison let cheating women on for free, and then nickel-and-dimes every man that logs in. Pay to read a message from a woman (which was sent to him for free by her), pay to initiate contact with a woman, pay for real-time chat. Sounds like a cheap late-night sex chat hotline.

In addition, only 30% of the population are even female. The webmasters load the server up with dummy offline profiles of fake women so that the overwhelming score of men don't feel like they're in a sausagefest.

It gets better! Because if you want to delete your profile and get out of the game, you have to pay them AGAIN! This time, $19 to have your profile erased. And then you know what? NOTHING WAS EVER DELETED.

You wanna talk unethical?

[–]rg57 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

You're taking this awfully personally...

[–]gibsonunderscore 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

There is a difference between having a strong opinion and taking it personally.

[–]rg57 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

It's no different than being caught by the spouse

Actually, it's very different. Generally you have a pretty good chance of defending yourself against your crazy spouse. It's a lot harder to defend against random lunatics, and governments.

In any case, now that there's a decent chunk of change to be made by turning these hackers in, I'm getting my popcorn in bulk. They will certainly have bragged to people who know them personally. And those people are about to become rich (although I would hold out for a couple million...)

[–]gibsonunderscore 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

N...no. No, it's not different. I don't know where you're getting this "defend" nonsense from, but this is like being caught in the act, dude. Mid-thrust. In between moaning. That sorta thing.

Government can't do anything because infidelity isn't illegal. Random lunatics aren't going to firebomb you for using Ashley Madison. But when your wife finds your email address on the data dump, good luck not losing half your shit.
