The 'cheating' angle of this story strikes me as so stupid and overblown. They just market themselves as a affair website. Really a person can sign up on any dating site to find some strange. I don't think you have to prove your married. In fact, that wouldn't make sense for a couple reasons. Married people often cheat on their partners with single people. And what are they going to ask you to do, scan a wedding certificate?
Just like some sites advertise and 'cater' to different religions, different age groups, etc., I'm sure this one just markets to married people. It's probably more about marketing than actual philosophy. A way to stick out in the crowd. There's a lot of ways to cheat, and actually, if I was going to, I don't think I would go to the one that advertises to cheaters. That actually seems kinda dumb. Interested parties could just put up a profile and find out.
Unless there is some system to the site I don't know about that prevents people from searching other partners. But how would a dating site like that operate?
As for the security aspect, and data scrubbing aspects, those are more interesting to me.
