... be prepared for the total meltdown of the media tomorrow!

Not to mention marriages. According to the news report I just listened to, there are 189,000 names in Ottawa alone that are on the released list. Our city's population is only about 883,000, so that's 21%! Ottawa's reputation as a city full of stodgy old civil servants is at risk.

You on that list Larry? Statistically either you or your wife should be.

There's been talk of AM wildly inflating membership details, especially of women. Some reports say up to 95% are men, and a huge number of female profiles are fake.

Prediction 1: we will see a web-based search so non-techie types can easily search the info.
Prediction 2: at least 1 or 2 married/attached people will be exposed of some (perceived) importance .. movie star, politician etc.
Prediction 3: Media will focus on some tiny aspect of it, or speculation about what people "think" within a week it will start to die down, it will blow over, no-one will change behaviour or bother to do anything about our dwindling privacy. Social Media will continue to scrape every minor detail of our lives, getting ever invasive until it gets to the point where because we didn't post anything at 2:05 - 2:10, it knows when we take a dump and starts to bombard us with toilet paper ads!

Hahaha. Nope. Surgery and radiation 12 years ago have rendered me ... unmarketable. Not that I would be a candidate in any case. The wife and I celebrated 35 years of happy marriage this year, so I'm a happy, lucky and eternally faithful man with no need to fool around.

Now that's a serious reason to download the db and parse it for the ladies profiles. After all, there's still nearly two weeks left to make the summer-2015 totally furious!

BTW,

We should not play along. We should get off the ride. We should not search this database for our loved ones. We should take our kids to the water park. We should close our computers and walk out into the sunshine of late summer and feel the heat of our glorious life-sustaining superstar on our cheeks.

Author maybe stressing for some reason?

Prediction 2...Tick!
Steve Ragan tweeted: 15,000 .gov / .mil addresses included in the Ashley Madison data dump..


Prediction 3... Tick!
