The recent Ashley Madison site hack led to panic and in some cases, ruin, as would-be cheaters had their identities exposed.

State Rep. Allen Peake, R-Macon, said he'd be "taking some time" to evaluate his status as a House member after he admitted to opening an account years ago during a "difficult period" in his marriage.

Embattled reality show personality Josh Duggar issued a statement saying "I am so ashamed of the double life that I have been living and am grieved for the hurt, pain and disgrace my sin has caused my wife and family, and most of all Jesus and all those who profess faith in Him," after his account became public.
