The Ashley Madison cheating website was hacked earlier this week.  Many celebrities and business people have been called out for being members of the cheating site. This website is for married people looking to have affairs. The members pay a subscription to keep their identity private.

Celebrities, such as Josh Duggar and Joe Biden's son Hunter, were among the hacker's most infamous reveals so far.  Ashley Madison hacking has triggered extortion crimes and led to two unconfirmed reports of suicides, according to Canadian police.

Ashley Madison users are suing the cheating website. Furious members of the site filed lawsuits in California, Texas, Missouri, Georgia, Tennessee and Minnesota.  All seek class-action status to represent the estimated 37 million registered Ashley Madison users. The hackers have outed many names and personal information from members accounts.

According to Madrid-based digital agency Tecnilogica, thousands of residents in the Texas Panhandle have registered to the Ashley Madison site.
