Frederick Knott dialed M for murder, but millions of users are logging on to commit their cardinal sins.
The internet super highway for many leads them straight to adultery. Not only are people finding digital solutions to their seven year itch, but sites are making hundreds of thousands of dollars a year exploiting them.
From high end mistress brokers to sleazy sex hookup sites infidelity online is big business.
The approach of each site is a little different; some don't concern themselves completely with married men and women, while others are pretty explicit concerning jump starting affairs.
One of the most common less in your face, facet of internet adultery is the phenomenon of Sugar Daddies/Mommies and babes sites. The sites are plentiful and usually don't mention affairs, but you can usually choose what type of relationship you're after. One of the most common seen on profiles are "discrete relationships"
The Sugar Daddy Baby sites range in price from 19.95 a month to 35.95 a month with the gold-diggers - er- "sugar babes" usually paying the higher price. Ironically the most expensive of these sites MillionaireMate.com seems to be the same group of people that have joined Passion.com and AdultFriendFinder.com. You are paying 35.95 a month for the same guy that is worth 12.99 on another site.
On many they urge people to maintain a "classy demeanor", like on SugarDaddie.com.
I think this is pretty impossible. Even if you are wearing a turtle neck and wool slacks and none of your body is showing you are still auctioning off your body to the highest bidder in hopes that you will get money and gifts for simply being attractive.
I really can't think of a more classless and disrespectful act that a person can put their body through.
To be fair , on there are many profiles and posts on Sugar daddy websites that simply reek of desperation, while the sob stories posted are more than half the time fabrications, I'm sure the person that put them up was in a desperate bind.
Unfortunately, there are many people that seem just clueless. At 45 years old, no person should be calling themselves a "baby" and they really shouldn't be trying to live off their looks.
No matter how desperate their situation, I really think the sugar daddy route is not the best choice for them.
For the Sugar Mamas and Papas, signing up for one of those sites says two things. "Screw it, I have nothing to offer someone except money" and "I lack the patience and social skills to find a partner that will stay with me for free."
Sadly many of the profiles looking for legal Sugar babes sound eerily similar to those posted on Craigslist looking for illegal prostitution.
Sadly, it seems fitting; some adult models use their same pictures and screen names from their Eros.com page. A page where high end strippers, adult models and even escorts advertise.
Some would argue that the SugarBabes and nothing more than legal prostitutes, but in all fairness. Users are not allowed to explicitly say they will do certain sex acts for a certain sum of money. Are a number of the women and men on these sites escorts? Most defiantly, but I don't feel that the majority are.
Beyond the world of sugar, where one partner is usually married and looking for a younger single companion there is market for married folks that simply want to have a fling with another married person. The goal of these sites is to hook married people up so that both parties stay married.
Unlike the sugar daddy sites these sites come with a hefty fee for both parties, to receive unlimited emails and chat on ashleymadison.com one would have to pay a whopping $249 dollars every three months.
The site uses a credit system, so every time you talk, email or contact another member it cost you a certain amount of credits, like a wild adulterous carnival. The cost of 20 emails is about $49 dollars. Perhaps this is to deter married people that aren't serious, or just to exploit their weakness for monetary gain.
Surprisingly, sites like Ashley Madison and its skankier counterpart AffairMatch.com are extremely sexually charged. While the sugar sites ban members that talk about sex in their profiles these sites are the polar opposite.
Your profile is built mostly for you. You can pick options pre-made for you. When Ashley Madison.com asks you what you are looking for in a man, the choices sound more like your reading the back of a porno than descriptions of people.
Married hook up sites are like straight henny and no chaser, the Sugar sites dance around what they really are but AffairMatch.com smacks you in the face with it.
On its front page is plainly states they are the place to "Find a cheating spouse who finds comfort and satisfaction in marital infidelity" Both sites post numerous articles on the biological correctness of cheating as well as how to guides.
Every page you click through seems to try to convince users that what they're doing is "right" and may even lead to a healthier marriage. Perhaps because my moral compass is not currently set on a strong magnet, I find the idea of such a thing laughable.
The yin to the cheating spouses' yang is of course key logging programs. Ranging from free to well over $200 dollars, they can be downloaded or purchased and installed covertly onto the pc or laptop of the suspected Ho or man ho.
The programs come in many languages and for users of varying degrees of computer savvy. Some programs even automatically forward you all the mail that your spouse receives.
A free trick that is always a blow to the cheater is old reliable Google. If you suspect your partner of cheating, and you know the online ID that they usually use, pop the moniker into a search engine. All the profiles that they've created under that name will come up.
If you see AshleyMadison.com as one of them, the next thing you should pop into the search bar is "divorce lawyer".

THE INTERNET BREAKUP
original print : 2/26/08
February is at its end and thus dumping season is on.
All the people that were too chicken to get rid of their insignificant other before V-day are now dumping all the excess baggage. Networking sites and more are all filled with ammunition in the war to save face that is being fought in the hearts of many.
For the net savvy there are many options in going about showing the world how butt-hurt you are over being dispatched by your sweetie. For those that have done the dispatching and are looking for the most cold-hearted way to call it quits since the text message break up, the options are even greater.
When your heart is broken, you might be in such a weak emotional state that you are under the delusion that people on the internet care about your problems.This is a mistake; sometimes a grave mistake.
Everything you post about how horrible your ex was will no doubt be used as ammunition against you later to prove what a weak idiot you made yourself out to be.
When we're upset, sometimes we as human beings, have the tendency to overstate things. What you might not see through your blood-shot teary eyes is, that if you make your ex-lover seem like a filthy Lothario, everyone on your favorite forum will now think that you are a big old box of AIDS.
The longer the relationship, the more horrible an idea it is to bad mouth your ex, especially if you two happen to post on the same forum. This is especially true if you met your ex on that forum. Not only did you make an internet hook up into a relationship ( which should be a cardinal sin), you are now going to automatically be the bad guy for trying to pit the entire site on your lost love.
Bow out gracefully.
If you share the same cyber spaces spare everyone the spectacle and just take a break. You don't need to put a message on his/her Facebook wall to broadcast to the world that they are scum.
If someone is in a person's top 10, not only do they already know said person is scum, but they are pretty okay with it. After all is said and done with, you only made yourself the fool for putting your own business out there.
Not only that, but when you tell the internet terrible things about a person, nothing is stopping them from doing the same to you.
If a picture has been posted on the net once, it's there forever.
FOREVER.
Those cell phone pics you let him take when you both got drunk. Forever.
The picture she took of you wearing her panties during that fit of post coital giddiness.
Forever.
How many of us have come across a video of a random college strip shaking her money maker in front of the camera but not before she tells her beau "this is only for you , don't show anyone else , You promise right?" WRONG.
So before you make that entry on Dontdatehimgirl.com, or post her nudes in the revenge section of your favorite image boards, think about what you're doing.
The lulz will run dry, and in the end you'll only be left with your own bitterness about the situation.
Not to mention, now all virtual foot prints will point to you being a completely un-datable psychopath.
