Hackers dump 32 million Ashley Madison users’ data onto internet

In case you haven't heard by now, the dirt's been dumped...

For lawyers, It'll be like the second coming of Christ! They're all coming out of the woodwork whether they like it or not - all the adulterers, thanks to those hackers of the Ashley Madison site who seemed to have made good on their promise and gave us a 'dirty' data dump, on 32 million users - 9.7 gigabytes in size. The data was posted on Tuesday to the dark web using an Onion address accessible only through the Tor browser - the anonymity network. No one was immune on the list either as some government and military folks were some of Ashley Madison's members.

Among the things included in the data were account details and log-ins, four digit numbers from credit cards (not the entire credit card numbers) and descriptions of what members were seeking...

“I’m looking for someone who isn’t happy at home or just bored and looking for some excitement,” wrote one member who provided an address in Ottawa and the name and phone number of someone who works for the Customs and Immigration Union in Canada. “I love it when I’m called and told I have 15 minutes to get to someplace where I’ll be greeted at the door with a surprise—maybe lingerie, nakedness. I like to ravish and be ravished … I like lots of foreplay and stamina, fun, discretion, oral, even willingness to experiment—*smile*”

 Here’s how the hackers dumped the new data:

As for the hackers, they’re clearing themselves of any responsibility of any repercussions of the victims this whole fiasco may cause.

“Find yourself in here? It was ALM that failed you and lied to you. Prosecute them and claim damages. Then move on with your life. Learn your lesson and make amends. Embarrassing now, but you’ll get over it,” they wrote.

It’s important to note that Ashley Madison’s sign-up process does not require verification of an email address to set up an account, so legitimate addresses might have been hijacked and used by some members of the site. One email in the data dump, for example, appears to belong to former UK Prime Minister (Tony Blair).
