FBI Confirms North Korea Behind Sony Hack?!?

Well it has been confirmed that the Sony Pictures hack was caused by terrorism and now the FBI Confirms North Korea Behind Sony Hack!

CelebNMusic247.com has just got word via Collider that The Interview and the cyber-terrorists behind its non-release, which President Obama says the Sony made the wrong call. The reason why the President weighed in on the situation is because it makes us look like we gave into terrorism.

We feel that the movie should NOT have been made, because its a touchy subject and no country should be making fun of assassination and President of ruler. We get it though, since South Park made the film Team America, which was a comedic approach on real issues.

Maybe it was the trailers, but The Interview came off wrong, and the Sony Hack didn’t help the film, so the hack WINS and the film has been scrapped. After scrapping the film the new promo spot popping up online last night that proclaimed “In Franco and Rogen We Trust”, Sony removed all clips and the aforementioned video from the internet.

Here is what is being reported:

Now a couple of new developments have arisen, chiefly: the FBI has officially named North Korea as the culprits behind the devastating cyber attack on Sony Pictures. Moreover, a new message has arrived from the “anonymous” terrorists calling Sony “wise” not to release The Interview and demanding that the film not show up online or on DVD. More after the jump.

seth-rogen-the-interview-movie-imageThe FBI released a statement today, per USA Today, saying North Korea is behind this truly upsetting cyber attack:

“As a result of our investigation, and in close collaboration with other U.S. Government departments and agencies, the FBI now has enough information to conclude that the North Korean government is responsible for these actions,” a FBI statement said.

The statement makes no mention of The Interview or the specific demands regarding the film’s release, and I’m sure everyone’s scrambling to figure out what to do next. Truly, this is the most devastating cyber attack in our country’s history.

As if things couldn’t possibly get any worse, the hackers reportedly sent a message last night (via CNN) claiming that the attack is “over”—as long as The Interview never sees the light of day:

“Now we want you never let the movie released, distributed or leaked in any form of, for instance, DVD or piracy.”

This whole situation is extremely upsetting and depressing. We’re in new territory here with regards to the scale and impact of cyber terrorism, but to think that a studio-made, large-scale, U.S. film might not see the light of day because another country doesn’t like it is devastating.
