Ashley Madison is a Canada-based online dating service and social networking service marketed to people who are married or in a committed relationship. Its slogan is "Life is short. Have an affair."
Basically Ashley Madison "is" a website that aims to facilitate an affair for married people.
They were hacked and tons of names from married people who have created accounts there have been exposed.
The website promised complete confidentiallity and that it would not save personal information for the people using their service.
ALM offered a paid option in which people who created a profile could have their account scrubbed from the Tinder-for-adulterers website if they coughed up $19. When the massive data dump of Ashley Madison lust-hunters surfaced, it was found that while information was indeed removed when accounts were deleted, some details remained in the site's databases – and were splashed all over the web by miscreants.

Exposed people include reality show personality, US State Attourney, and popular YouTuber among millions of others.
Some people have even committed suicide after being exposed in this hack.
So I ask you?
Do you think that hack was wrong? People using this service and the website are victims?
Do you think that this sort of service and cheating initiative by those who used this website should warrant this exposure / reveal and consequences should follow, so you are happy that it happened? Or do you think this are two different things that have nothing to do with each other?
Do you think the ones to blame are the ones in charge of the website for poor protection of user confidentiality?
What is your opinon on this?
