Data from hack of Ashley Madison cheater site purportedly dumped online
http://arstechnica.com/security/2015/08/data-from-hack-of-ashley-madison-cheater-site-purportedly-dumped-online/
Gigabytes worth of data taken during last month's hack
of the Ashley Madison dating website for cheaters has
purportedly been published online--an act that, if true, could
prove highly embarrassing for the men and women who have used
the service over the years. A 10-gigabyte file purportedly
containing e-mails, member profiles, credit-card transactions
and other sensitive Ashley Madison information became available
as a BitTorrent download in the past few hours. Ars hasn't had
an opportunity to download the massive file to confirm its
contents.
