> I'm not really sure what conclusions to draw from this article. Don't cheat on your husband? And on the other side, don't stalk and harass your ex!

No, those are not the conclusions to draw from this article.

You might start with:

- do not send information you do not wish to be made public to others

- online harassment can have devastating consequences

- authorities are prone to respond to bogus information multiple times even though it should be clear to them who the victims are

- there is no effective way to stop such harassment in a timely manner

On the plus side, it could have been worse, fortunately no SWATting or such happened, but it easily could have.

Those are YOUR conclusions, he has a right to his own. Don't impose your ideologies onto others. Not that I support his, but I'm not a fan of you taking an authoritarian stance here - "Here's what you should be thinking..".
