Should We Open Our Arms, And Borders, To Members Of The Ashley Madison Adulterers Site...

[sandyRoe]

...now that its been hacked and lists of members revealed?
I'm thinking of adulterers in Islamic countries where their chosen lifestyle, now that it's bee revealed, could put them in considerable danger.

* been revealed ^

[-Talbot-]

Has anyone seen these revealed details?

[sandyRoe]

I don't know. But some people must be living in trepidation that they'll be awakened by a dawn raid and then be taken out to be stones in the public square.

[sandyRoe]

Numbers 32:23 comes to mind.

Well apparently you have to look in the 'dark webb'

I had a bash at looking into the dark-webb and failed miserably.

Mention 'the dark web' and funny things happen...like an extra B

There is not an Arabic version of the Ashley Madison site, and it does not operate in any muslim countries.

So your question is largely irrelevant.

I will award your question the AOG Award for spurious posting about Muslims.

I am finding it all but impossible to summon up any sympathy for the users of this on-line adultery site. Marriage breakups cause no end of problems and heart-aches, especially when there are kids involved, and I speak from experience here. So they get whatever they deserve, as far as I am concerned.

[sandyRoe]

I say, Gromit, I hardly deserve that. My post was motivated only by a concern that people might have put themselves in peril because of their past peccadillos. And it's possible to live in an Islamic country and not be a Muslim.

[mikey4444]

Gromit...a bit harsh with sandy here in my opinion ! He meant well.

[SlackAlice]

Why not? Everybody else is coming in.

[Baldric]

looking back on Sandy's previous he seems to have a desire to take in anyone and everyone whom he perceives to have even the tiniest problem in their lives!

[aelmpvw]

Gromit's probably a bit miffed because he's been outed ...

[whiskeryron]

// Should We Open Our Arms, And Borders, To Members Of The Ashley Madison Adulterers Site// YES some of these people are very much in mortal danger in their own country.

[Gromit]

If there should be any concern for anyone outed by this hack, then worrying about people in islamic countries is misplace.

A map of where the site members live can be found here

The majority of the adulterers are in Christian countries. The only cluster I can see in the middle east is in Israel.

I'm never sure if Sandy is talking tongue-in-cheek. I read these posts, in the assumption that all of them were tongue-in-cheek and laughed uproariously. Maybe it's not funny, though, but I still laughed.

[youngmafbog]

The hackers need to be hunted down and made an example of.

Ok, this ones a bit of a laugh to most of us(sounds like Gromit has been outed judging by the touchynes), but this could lead to anyone with a dislike to any activity displaying names, addresses, bank details in order to shut the site down or demand blackmail money.

Russian hackers effectively closed down on-line betting sites a year or so ago. I don't know if the firms concerned paid the Danegeld or tightened up their security.
