China is the country with known cyber attacks on the US(according to our government, but hey we are accepting the FBI&#x27;s answer that this was NK). China has also been posturing with Japan in the surrounding waters(Sony is a Japanese company no matter what legal wrangling they use for Sony Pictures Entertainment). China is also a border country of NK, how inconceivable is it that a North(or South) Korean&#x2F;s was working for China?<p>But apparently NK was bothered enough by another comedy movie making fun of their backward country that they executed a sophisticated months long cyber attack and then released the spoils of war for free with only some anonymous postings detailing their motives.

Assuming it really was North Korea, I hope they will come up with a sensible response. Maybe another funny movie. Or just suck it up and be better prepared next time. But not something as disproportionate as the 9&#x2F;11 reaction.

Any excuse to initiate any type of attack on another country. This is getting ridiculous and blown out of proportion like everything else does outside the US.

&quot;Proportionate&quot; retaliation means releasing emails from one of NK&#x27;s top commercial film studios?
