^ My main thing isn't that... well, it partly is; dishonesty is bad and hurts people but this is rather disproportionate punishment. But the main thing is the people who were privately using this site for completely unobjectionable reasons in a modern context: either they're in an open relationship, or a couple wants to spice things up (terrible cliché but you know what I mean), or going through a divorce, or already separated, or just looking for something non-serious in any context where they aren't misleading anyone, being exposed like this is just awful.
Obviously the ramifications for closeted LGBT individuals are a whole other thing that on its own makes this totally unforgivable.
