That's believable. It's not like most people would be terribly motivated creating an artificially inflated supply of millions of fake dicks online...

...The only group I could imagine being motivated to do it would be a spouse's union, paying a water army to DDOS "watering holes" for affairs with honeypots, which report anyone caught attempting to cheat to a collective database for identification and confrontation.

But I think this would be a waste of resources in today's world - the high profile breach was probably enough to prevent anything as big as Ashley Madison from rising to prominence for a long time yet. And those motivated enough to have an affair would adjust to seek another path. It could definitely have a negative further overall effect on marital trust.



People just use normal dating sites these days.
