The interesting thing is they used these same tactics with Iraq to convince us all and of course they're not going to release any actual evidence to the public to give themselves credibility. I'm not convinced that it's actually North Korea but a group who could have easily tricked the amateurs tracking them.

The U.S. authorities claim North Korea is behind it. They are not "amateurs".

I would really like to see a detailed explanation of the authorities' evidence that North Korea is behind the attacks, but of course we don't get to know what evidence they have, we just have to trust them.

Until I see something plausible, I'm just gonna assume this is another US:NK playbook exercise, designed to make NK seem like a real threat to the West, and to give an excuse for more defense corporations to sell contracts to Western armies.  Roll Eyes

I am really surprised that North Korea is so technologically advanced that it can do something like that.
I always thought of them as technologically backward country.

typical propaganda



Yeah, go live in NK and tell us how awesome your life quality is once you arrive there.

Oh wait internet is banned so NK citizens don't learn about how shitty they have it compared to developed countries.

I wonder what tools like you are doing in this forum.

Honestly, I highly doubt that North Korea is involved at all. The US is manipulating when they want to.
I'm just surprised that they didn't blame Russia, although it wouldn't make much sense due to the movie.

It's certainly embarassing for Sony. It is entirely in character for North Korea....

I'm from Australia and even I know it's not a good idea to do this to the USA. Huh

It's a bit sus that they wouldn't use a VPN or proxy so I'm pretty sure this could just be a group of hackers trying to put the blame on North Korea and start a war.

Turns out North Korea has an official facebook and Twitter.

No, they might not be amateurs, but they're certainly an interested party. As Lethn pointed out, that wouldn't be the first time a similar tactic was used.

Holy shit! I was just thinking of Iraq and the nuclear weapons where they tried to all scare us into going to war! I didn't think that there was an actual mirror example! lmao! Cheesy

1st: North Korea is not behind the attack. This gives America the right to 'respond' in a way. I couldn't find the exact thing that Obama said, but it was something about responding in the appropriate time and way.
The most powerful computer in north korea is a gameboy. I call bullshit.
(translation).
2nd: Oh you poor unknowing thing.The equipment is useless when your 'army' is bad. North Koreas' cyber force is better and smarter then the one from USA.

How crazy would it be if this movie started a war.

Its already an Act of War

The thing is, the leader of North Korea wants a war. The republicans want to bomb them and etc but democrats worry about the women and children etc.

Even though North Korea may have the dumbest leader, this is still a big deal.

At the end of the day: Sony should of let it be played by whoever wanted to play it. We spend half of the 1.1 trillion on defense the coming year, be confident in it and learn from your mistakes.

When you are dealing with threatening demands from a country in the year 2015 with a spending budget like North Korea, you don't put boots on the ground like the middle east or 1940s Normany.
You take them out with technology.

It would be funny to see Russia protect North Korea at the last second tho


The Korean war never ended...

Still in shock that Sony actually decided not to go ahead. Rewarding blackmail, caving in to terrorists and all that stuff.
