Why some folks seem completely unable to comprehend that is astonishing. cleanhippie Aug 2015 #47

Hold up. Are you saying that its the hackers fault someone went to a hookup website cleanhippie Aug 2015 #48

Hardly. But I don't want anonymous hackers to determine which relationships are permissable, either. randome Aug 2015 #53
