What is the Ashley Madison customer list?

The Ashley Madison customer list refers to the user database from the infidelity-focused website Ashley Madison that was exposed in a high-profile cybersecurity breach in 2015. Owned by Avid Life Media, Ashley Madison catered to individuals seeking extramarital affairs, promising discretion and privacy. However, this confidentiality was shattered when hackers, identifying as The Impact Team, infiltrated the site's servers and released personal information of millions of users. The data dump included names, email addresses, credit card details, and sexual preferences, leading to widespread public scrutiny and personal fallout for those named in the list. The breach raised significant concerns regarding Internet privacy, digital security, and the ethical implications of such services.
