December 23, 2014 -- Updated 0246 GMT (1046 HKT)

(CNN) -- North Korea's Internet was back up Tuesday after a more than nine-hour outage, according to Dyn Research, a company that monitors Internet performance.

The disruption came amid an escalating war of words between the United States and North Korea over a massive cyberattack on Sony Pictures.

I read it was a max of 1024 IP addresses, so whatever it really is, I’m sure we are both close.

Maybe North Korean's internet was taken down by our everyday hackers and Obama had nothing to do with it. It's hard to see Obama being angry with fellow communists... He seems to like commie thugs - from Cuba up, down, and across.

We'll have to wait and see what happens next.
