A group known as the Guardians of Peace(G.O.P.) hacked Sony Pictures about two weeks ago. They left a message telling the company to censor itself or it will suffer the consequences. The consequences are unknown, but support their cause of peace. They are referring to a movie Sony is about to put out called "The Interview." The movie is supposed to be a comedy about trying to kill the leader of North Korea. It is believed that the hack might be a hoax by North Korea.
This is amusing to hear. As Americans we are used to having many freedoms and sometimes forget that everyone doesn't have those freedoms. As americans we also want to make a quick buck, which in this case is making a parody out of a serious situation. In the U.S this movie is just another movie. But its no joke when you're Kim Jong Un and you hear that some people in the U.S. are making a movie on an possible way to kill you. I do believe North Korea or the G.O.P. are over reacting but I can also understand why they would did what they did.
