Not a traffic accident. Not bankruptcy. Not illness. But a chilling message appeared on the computer screens of the executives at a Toronto, Canada technology company – a message from a group of hackers calling themselves "The Impact Team." The message claimed they had obtained all the data from Ashley Madison – the world's largest adult dating website, with over 37 million user accounts. Real names, email addresses, sexual preferences, message history, credit card information – all stolen. And if the company didn't shut down completely, it would all be leaked online for the whole world to see. The management didn't believe it. They thought it was just a petty blackmail scheme. But they were wrong. A month later, on August 18, 2015, nearly 10 gigabytes of data were dumped onto the dark web. Then another 20 gigabytes. Millions of internal company emails. Website source code. And most importantly – a complete list of names, addresses, and payment information of people who had signed up for Ashley Madison hoping their secrets would remain buried forever. In the weeks that followed, marriages broke down. Careers collapsed. Suicide notes were written. And some people took their own lives. This isn't just a hacking story. This is a story about greed, business ethics, and the price millions paid for believing the promises of a company that built its empire on a foundation of secrecy. This story begins in a pristine office in Toronto, Canada – where a young entrepreneur decides that marital infidelity is not a social problem, but a multi-billion dollar business opportunity.
