Ashley Madison owner CEO is stepping down
Notorious adultery site Ashley Madison's parent company is getting a leadership change after Ashley Madison was hacked.
Avid Life Media announced Friday its CEO Noel Biderman stepped down, effective Friday.
The move follows a hacking that revealed the email addresses of more than 30 million members of Avid Life Media's dating websites, at least one of which was targeted at married members. As a result, several people have said they would file lawsuits against the company.
"This change is in the best interest of the company and allows us to continue to provide support to our members and dedicated employees," the company said in a statement. "We are steadfast in our commitment to our customer base."
Avid Life Media has not yet appointed Biderman's replacement, according to the statement.
