They were a group of Chinese hackers, dedicated to opposing and finding ways to circumvent and disrupt the Chinese government’s attempt to firewall and censor the internet access of ordinary Chinese citizens.
Is Sony a part Japanese company?
Look up those Sony, no bologna commercials from the 80’s.
I’m guessing that everybody is calibrating their equipment and studying action and reaction.
Probing, recon by fire, patrols and ambushes, all happening in the cyber universe.
Plus the factor of: how many cards to reveal, and how many to conceal?

“And that’s a risky move. They MAY believe a military attack is imminent and do something stupid. But that’s what AEGIS is for, right?”
And us with front row seats as history is made. A lot of wars start with blunders. An archduke is shot, and all hell breaks loose.
Chaos! The Alinsky rules.
I would hope our defense grid is on a closed intranet.
As always. Fact is, Internet networks are really easy to bust. They are fragile in nature. Even the most secure military communications takes massive amounts of engineering to try to stay hardened, and even then they can be defeated. It isn’t that hard to disrupt satellite communications or literally pull the plug of an undersea cable.
Dear Leader sez: Obama can’t hack us; I purr our prug, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
..... Heck .... What will happen next? Stay tuned folks ..... altho streaming may become quite interesting in the future! I wonder what would happen to our entertainment based society if "Facebook, Twitter, et-al as well as Netflix, Hulu etc .... and the entire internet suddenly were plunged into oblivion?
... I wonder if our deep sea fiber optics network cables are secure enough?
The little doucherocket’s next threat will arrive by carrier pigeon.
Thanks for the ping.
This is getting even more interesting.
In actuality it was not a coordinated internet attack on the DPRK.
They hit their bandwidth limit with Comcast, were on automatic billing and their credit card was declined.
12 hours on hold with Comcast customer service is all this is, nothing more. Move along.
Thought that was normal at night over there...
Negative. As far back as the late 90s, early 2000s there were individuals and hacking groups that possessed the resources to knock entire first world countries offline through DDOS attacks among other things. Even then they controlled vast zombie/bot armies- and this was before the era of the ‘rent-a-bother’ idea, so they’re even more capable now.
Phil Dragoo suggested to me earlier that Sony was about to make a movie on Snowden....... Very possible that Snowdens cheering section may be involved in the attack.......or Precident for Life Generalisimo Erkel Mugabe aka Idi Amin Obammy sic’d “no such agency” on Sony ........suggesting they do not make a snowden flick.
Crazy stuff .....
Er, rent-a-botnet.
Obama is likely still holding meetings to get a consensus on a proportional and measured response...
The targets would be focused on mostly critical areas which would cause the most damage. In fact some of our most sensitive networks have already been compromised, some repeatedly. To the point where they were all but shut down due to those intrusions. There are many ways to shut down and or cripple large sensitive communication networks. But you're free to believe that thing about switches.
