While it is being reported that Duggar had the Ashley Madison account during his time with the FRC, given that he is no longer a part of the group, of what interest is this to anyone outside of his family?

Geither is a businessman, whereas Duggar was a former reality TV star who went on to become the executive director of the American conservative Christian group the Family Research Council, before resigning in May 2015 after molestation charges were leveled against him. Neither story is in the interest of the general public.Just because it was one individual submitting the information to Gawker in the Geither case does not make it any different to them obtaining it via hackers in the Duggar case. Gawker obtained this information through third-party sources, with them not having obtained it through the Geithner or Duggar themselves.So we all rightly dog-piled on Gawker when they outed Condé Nast Publications’ David Geithner and successfully helped a male escort blackmail him, yet they’re now running a story informing us that former conservative reality TV star Josh Duggar was among those named in the Ashley Madison hack, and that’s okay?Īllow me to run through the list of similarities between those events, that have both attracted thoroughly disparate responses: Here are 3 inherent problems with supporting the Ashley Madison hack that those doing so should consider: Yes, it is difficult to feel sympathy for those who have been engaging in extra-marital affairs, but not all of the men swept up in this controversy will be in a relationship as cut and dry as “sleazy married man looks for sex with other women behind his wife’s back.” And even if they are all like that, why is it necessary for their personal information to be in the public domain?
That is what those in support of the monumental hack have been telling themselves, but morality isn’t black and white, meaning that supporting the actions of these cyber criminals is dubious at best, abhorrent at worst. We may not know the people behind the data leaks, but we know that they have engaged in infidelity, and that therefore makes them awful people who deserve to have their personal information leaked onto the Internet. We like to see people get their comeuppance, and with the Ashley Madison hack that feeling that justice is somehow being served has been multiplied monumentally.
