Not sure either. There's a class action suit over the first leak (the names/emails etc) and the lawyers are pouring over the leaked emails of the CEO now - they would have seized them anyway they are just getting them early (last paragraph in this article);
Ashley Madison: Boss's emails examined after leak - BBC News
In another article it was argued that companies working with sensitive information have a duty of care to look at the list to see if any of their employee emails are there (but there's no email verification so anyone can register with a dummy email).
What about all the Wikileaks files, weren't they obtained illegally as well? They're still online I think.
