Ashley Madison, a website designed to help married people preform adultery, was breached by hackers in an attempt to collect personal information, including credit card info, names, and emails. They succeeded breaching over 30 million users. The hackers threatened to leak all information unless the website was shut down immediately. The hackers called the impact team kept good on their promise by sending out threatening emails to users demanding payment or they would share information to the spouse.
Government officials, and other very important figures were also caught red handed using the disturbing site. What makes it even more intriguing is the websites female population is only 8%. Of the 8% the IP addresses were tracked and they were the same! These "females" on the websites were actually just bots to get men to pay to engage in erotic messages. Gladstone again cracks the code!
Physical: The physical harm is a broken home due to infidelity, as well as identity theft due to leaked information.
Psychological: Being paranoid about your information being in someone else's hands. Trust issues from your partner.
Cultural: From a cultural standpoint, its every race partaking not just a particular race.
Social: If you sign up for this type of website, your social relationship with your partner must not be good. You want to feel socially accepted and feel good about yourself.
Temporal: These men and "women" want to feel a spark away from their partner, and feel a sense of power.
