Have you considered that this information leak can not only ruin the cheaters but the spouses' life too? I agree cheaters deserve their comeuppance, but it should be in a way where friends or strangers don't have to know about it because it's not their business. Things like this should be handled delicately, you know, with a divorce lawyer and friends not knowing about it. It could cause embarrassment for the cheater and his spouse. Three people committed suicide due to this, and it shouldn't have escalated that far.

It is people's own choice to commit suicide. You can't blame that on somebody else. The cheater should be publicly shamed. Of course they want everything done in secret and in the dark where nobody knows about it. Why should the world revolve around these filthy pieces of garbage? They are running lives out of complete selfishness, and then we need to consider their feelings and keep it a secret? Give me a fucking break dude. They ruined their own lives, not the hackers. They killed themselves, not the hackers. And they deserve the misery that they themselves have brought upon their own lives 

I don't know in what way cheating has affected your life, and I don't want to know either. But when a wife sees her husband's name on a Ashley Madison leak, and all her friends, acquaintances, work partners know about it, it affects the wife, the children (if they have), and the immediate family, and not the cheater exclusively. I'm not defending cheaters at all, and I'm not asking for them to get pity, but a separation/divorce should be dealt in a proper way with the cheater and his/her spouse dealing with it accordingly, not with the news blowing up in their faces.
