AshleyMadison.com’s owner says it is examining a large batch of data posted online by hackers. A group called Impact Team initially posted a sample of the data online on July 19. The group in part contested the moral position of Ashley Madison, which caters to people seeking extramarital affairs. Avid Life Media has hired independent forensic investigators and is working with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Ontario Provincial Police, the Toronto Police Services and the FBI. The file posted on Mega appears to be 8.68 GB and is titled ashleymadison_db_dump.”]
