It was certainly big news when it got hacked, so yeah in that sense it's a use case for PrivacyX/Darksend. I just don't personally like that one.
Edit, I just checked the general forum...looks like I'm spamming the place

It's just a use case for Dash. This was a very famous site where lots of people were spending lots of money. Details of how their operation ran are unimportant. Dating sites are becoming more and more popular, including ones targeting married couples. A multi billion dollar industry like I've said.

This is just an example of a potential use case when it comes to scenarios where you have the average Joe who's not politically or ideologically motivated but would prefer privacy even if she/he is in the "I have nothing to hide" camp.
That's like saying the drug market is a huge opportunity and it doesn't matter if drugs are right or wrong. Associating Dash with cheating websites won't do much to improve our reputation, either.

Buy sex toys, gamble, hide your balance from criminals, support activism or political parties, pay for medical services (abortion, urologist, gynecologist, psychiatrist, etc), domestic violence victims...

It's called a marketing ploy.

Noone ever said we should call up AshleyMadison.com and legit ask them to use Dash. But everyone knows what we are saying when we say they shoulda ditched Visa for Dash and this wouldn't have been a problem.

Nothing more.

Exactly. That's the idea here. Giving people a tool to use to protect their reputation and provide security. All these are excellent use cases.
