    Original post

    There is a wonderful rant in today's edition of The New York Times online.

    "The Ashley Madison Hack Shows We're Too Dumb To Cheat," by Jennifer Weiner. An excerpt:

    In the wake of Tuesday’s revelation that up to 15,000 of Ashley Madison’s would-be philanderers might work for the United States government or military, I want to add yet another [category of idiots}: “You are a government employee and you were too stupid to create a new email account when you registered on a website for cheaters.”

    I have to admit to being astounded at what government personnel do and write on government computers.

    I'll be interested to see what investigations are started to linking emails to clearances - seems like a no-brainer revocation to me. I'll also be interested to see whether the DOD pursues all of those "bright bulbs" that registered with their .mil address - considering adultery could be prosecuted under Article 134 of the UCMJ. I guess the saying is true...you just can't fix stupid.

    I have heard reports that Ashley Madison doesn't confirm those e-mail address, which gives their "clients" some measure of deniability.
