A 20-second cuddle at a Coldplay concert turned two anonymous executives into global villains, and a viral cautionary tale about power, privacy, and the wrath of the internet.

Andy Byron, who has found himself at the center of a social media firestorm over a Coldplay concert video, was the CEO of a tech company named Astronomer. On July 19, the company announced that Byron has resigned in the wake of the scandal.

His alleged mistress, Kristin Cabot, might not have the same financial dilemma in the face of divorce, Chemtob noted, as she and her apparent husband, Privateer Rum owner Andrew Cabot, seem to have been together a relatively short time. The details can get much dicier if either couple had prenuptial or postnuptial agreements, Chemtob noted.
