Sorry if it is rude, but this news is very funny.

  If you think about this for 10 seconds and realize that (in spite of being told not to) plenty of people re-use their access credentials across multiple sites then you'll realize that it is not very funny because it will affect a very large number of websites as fall-out and that your comment is not just rude but simply stupid. Large scale hacks like these affect all of us, whether you like it or not and the reduced trust by consumers affects all of us as well.

    plenty of people re-use their access credentials across multiple sites I learned that lesson 20 years or so ago. Unique passwords for every site now.

  As with the nude celebrity photos scandal from last year, the real wake-up call should be multifold: There are a lot of people who use these sites. The spreadsheets possibly only represent a fraction of the data appropriated. This event is making news, many don't. Including other dating services, or non-dating services with online data. Really: you simply don't know where, when, or how your data might get caught up in a system such as this. Don't be so smug.
