Yes, we have a copy of it. No, we’re not selling it. However, we’ll be putting our data analytics and data quality glasses on to see what lies within.
Several Australian cities featured prominently on the list of AM users. Singapore, which had banned the website was highly represented.
There is nothing special about Ashley Madison’s leak except that the brand attracts alot of negative emotions. They probably stepped on the toes on a capable geek. Reality is that nothing is safe on the internet, and transparency is your only defence.
Should Ashley Madison have done more to protect their data? Yes! The next simple step of basic data encryption should have been done. But it wasn’t.
Bye bye Ashley Madision. You’re not the first, and I am sure you won’t be the last. There is no defence against cheating spouses expect character, honesty, truth and love.
