At least three people have reportedly committed suicide now after being outed as cheaters from the Ashley Madison extramarital affair website hack and subsequent leak of some 37 million email addresses worldwide.
Michael Gorhum, a police captain from San Antonio, Texas who oversaw the San Antonio Regional Intelligence Center Unit better known as the Southwest Texas Fusion Center, shot himself to death on Thursday.
Gorhum was apparently easily outed because he used his work email which was easily recognizable. Another San Antonio detective was also on the site. As Photography Is Not a Crime pointed out, “We can expect many more government officials to be exposed who did not have the foresight to use an anonymous email.”
Two more people in Canada have also committed suicide because of the hack, but Toronto police have not released any further details according to BBC.
The website’s slogan is, lovingly, “Life is short. Have an affair.” They forgot, “… that everyone will find out about” on that second sentence.
CNN is reporting that the hack is “ripping marriages apart”… although, wouldn’t it ultimately be the CHEATING that’s doing that?
Not that suicide is the answer, but it’s kinda hard to keep reading these whiny media stories sympathizing with cheaters about how sad it is for them they might lose their job because they signed a morality clause or that some guy’s wife is leaving him and taking half because she can prove he was cheating on her left and right. Didn’t your parents teach you how to take some responsibility for your own behavior? It’s not the hacker’s fault you cheated in the first place.
Again, suicide is not the answer, but the fact that 37 million people… that’s million… got outed in this cheating hack is a pretty sad statement about society in general.
The website’s slogan is, lovingly, “Life is short. Have an affair.”
Apparently, it’s even shorter if you do have an affair.
"It was a sin for you to wanna feel up Ellen. It was a sin for you to plan to feel up Ellen. It was a sin for you to figure out a place to feel up Ellen. It was a sin to take Ellen to the place to feel her up. It was a sin to try to feel her up and it was a sin to feel her up. There were six sins in one feel, man!" - George Carlin
Really? A cop that can't rustle up some strange on the side? He also used his work e-mail address? Loser.
“did not have the foresight to use an anonymous email.”
Hmmmm. How about the foresight to, y’know, not cheat on your spouse?
Pure PT Barnum. Anyone who thought there were vast numbers of women out there willing to “have an affair” deserves to be clipped and Ashley Madison was the perfect device to do the clipping. What was it I heard, some 97% were men? Not only are we foolish for believing such hogwash but reckless for parting with money to do so. There are a lot of unhappy women out there but sex ain’t why and there are a lot of unhappy men out there. They should find each other! But wait, I guess they have. LOL.
What’s the big deal about Ashley? I bought some of my best furniture from them. My wife loves it when I’m on their website!
Okay, I must be a little dense. How would I go about searching the released information? I had heard that much info is not accurate so I would like to verify.
I also think the men found each other.
I have heard that. Interesting strategy. When things ain’t working for the team you have been playing on just change teams. It may work in baseball or bowling.
Ashley Madison is a whore, apparently...seems everyone was “on” her.
I would venture that Obama has never looked at another woman...
It’s just a bodily function to them, so the details of the object are logically irrelevant.
