December 17, 201410 yr I hope NK, Sony Pictures, and Seth Rogan all collapse. Seriously? NK brings it on themselves. You can't go attacking people because ideologically you disagree. I'm disappointed they're caving.
December 17, 201410 yr The movie looked stupid anyway, and I almost suspect Sony knows that and it's all some big promo bullshit to get people to see it. Note I said "almost"...
December 17, 201410 yr It was a dumb move to provoke a rogue government that doesn't play by anyone else's rules when you're unprepared to deal with the consequences. Just for the record, I have never said anything bad about the communists in North Korea. ...hopefully that posted statement now keeps my bank account from getting hacked into. It's like when people copy and paste those privacy statements or whatever on their FB pages, thinking it will stop FB doing whatever they want with your information (which I'm sure they agreed to when they clicked 'I agree' before signing up).
December 18, 201410 yr Is nK within their rights, as a govt, to cyber-attack Sony (an intl corp) for an insult? Can the US, or Japanese, govt, or Sony, now cyber-attack nK companies? When a foreign govt sponsors or performs a crippling hack on an international company with strong ties to the US, what's the proper response? And who should respond?

When a foreign govt sponsors or performs a crippling hack on an international company with strong ties to the US, what's the proper response? And who should respond? Sure, why not. Does nK have any companies? Torture. The CIA. North Korea connected to Sony attack as company cancels Dec. 25 release of 'The Interview'https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/2014/12/17/us-government-saw-interview-approved-theaters-upping-security/ Good. We're giving in to the demands of the terrorists. How about a big F YOU to the Jonger and release it for free to anyone who will air it over the airwaves, post a free download on their website, etc.
December 18, 201410 yr Good. We're giving in to the demands of the terrorists. Since when does an international conglomerate corporation headquartered in Japan constitute "we"?
December 18, 201410 yr Since when does an international conglomerate corporation headquartered in Japan constitute "we"? Since *American* movie theaters refused to air the premier for fear of reprisals? Besides which, I expect he was referring to the free world 'we'.

December 27, 201410 yr Rolling over like that is totally not cool. Well our administration just called it an "act of vandalism".... Pretty sure this qualifies as an act of war by most standards.
December 27, 201410 yr Cyber experts doubt FBI claims about hacking source Interesting...although I'm assuming (hoping) the FBI has more info than just what they're saying open source if they're pinning a cyber attack on a foreign government. Edited December 27, 201410 yr by backseatdriver

Vice posted this to youtube almost four years ago.Not sure why it took so long for the mainstream but this was the first I had heard of the export of labor from NK to countries they do business with. Export of illicit drugs is the one of the other sources of hard currency for the dear leader.https://thediplomat.com/2014/08/north-korea-chinas-largest-drug-dealer/

January 6, 20169 yr 14 minutes ago, ViperMan said: F bombs... equivalent in the right circumstances Follow on, I hope this convinces libs of the foolishness of nuclear disarmament, not responsible, verifiable reductions to reasonable levels of nuclear weapons but the idea that you could ever trust that all nuclear weapons have been eliminated when a piss poor communist thugocracy can scrape enough together to have fission and now fusion weapons and the means to deliver them. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-northkorea-missile-idUSKBN0UK02P20160106 The more things change the more they stay the same.
