Three John Doe plaintiffs have filed a complaint (PDF) against Amazon Web Services, GoDaddy, and 20 John Roes (anonymous defendants), in the Arizona District Court, for "intentionally inflicting emotional distress upon Ashley Madison users."
The plaintiffs want not less than $3m in damages or losses, and a jury trial to boot, and complain that the hack has resulted in them becoming victims to threats and extortion.

I'd like to know how they came to the number of 20 "anonymous" defendants.
Could we perhaps use that method here on AC where 5 ACs enter a conversation each claiming to be the same AC?
No, you are mistaken. I've always had this sig.
