Nice work by Ashley Madison
german law says: you can only use public figures for advertising if it has a journalistical background - otherwise you need the person to agree and you have to pay them. They just bought a stock picture and if this ad has a journalistical background is at least debatable

on the other side: at court the whole cheating thing would be in the press again for weeks, something the guy surely wants to avoid since he's back with his wife
