The Owners were probably in a lose-lose situation once the data got out and the media got ahold of all this. Security-wise I don't know if they could've done a better job or not (I'm not a security expert) and I don't know if there was a better "play" public relations-wise. So maybe the owners get a break from me here - except that their site's overall premise was bound to attract the less-than-respectable types. Ashley Madison was a target just being Ashley Madison.
As for my network, I try to have as much security in place as is "reasonable" (whatever that is). Any CC info is held by CCBill, Epoch, etc. But I view hacking/stealing of data as something akin to piracy. I can only do so much to prevent it.
