Not so hush hush

Splashed all over yesterday’s media was the news that the ‘go to’ website for those that wish to cheat - Ashley Madison - had been hacked.  The hackers claim to have information on ’’all the customers' secret sexual fantasies and matching credit card transactions". The still-unfolding leak could play out to be very damaging to some of its 1 million UK users, whose slogan is “Life is short. Have an affair.”

Ashley Madison founder Noel Biderman, has said the firm believes the hack was an inside job.

A case of not so much 'discreet encounters' and now the Avid Life Media firm which runs Ashley Madison has been forced to respond with an offer of a free permeant delete - that allows members to completely erase profile information, that previously cost them a £12.00 fee.

I think maybe too little too late as the cat it seems is well and truly out of the bag already…..maybe a mediation session to talk through issues would have been a better option rather than to bury heads in the sand over relationship problems and embark on an anonymous affair!  Mediation is a process to help couples who are on the cusp or have decided to separate or divorce to talk things through.  As a trained mediator, I can help you reach agreement about how to make the best arrangements for the future.
