Sony still quiet while rumors and uploads swirl

Posted on November 30, 2014 by Dissent

It’s hard for me to figure out what the real headline should be over the Sony Pictures hack.

Is is that a lot of personal data may have been stolen – again?  And if so, will the FTC open an investigation into the breach?

Is it that North Korea may be involved in the attack?

Or is it that Sony lost control of its intellectual property and movies are reportedly being leaked online?

What lessons that Sony should have learned from the 2011 hack hadn’t they learned? And what lessons will they and others learn now? It’s premature to speculate until we know more about what happened and how it happened.
