Are We N. Korea's B*tch Now??

Hello peeps, thanks for taking time out of your day to read this wacky update. Hopefully ya'll have been keeping up with my posts this past week. If not, take a moment to catch up. This news is actually quite interesting to me, so without further ado, let's dig right in.

So a while back, Sony was hacked by a group called "Guardians of Peace." Call it what you will, but I think this was a blessing in disguise, as it exposed all the shady happenings going on behind Sony's closed doors, and we definitely need more major exposures of this nature (yay for hack-tivisim!). If you wanna read more about that check this and this. This post is not about the hack itself, nor the shameless, scandalous methods of censorship Sony used against the journalists who tried to cover the hack and the secrets exposed.

As many of you probably have heard of already, Seth Rogen and James Franco's latest masterpiece, The Interview, was canceled from screening on Christmas day, due to rising threats from the hacker group, who threatened a 9/11-style attack on all theaters who showed the film. I guess the big bully succumbed to the short bully in the playground, eh? Anyway, the film was pulled and the hackers got what they wanted, so what? Well, as it turns out, there are now claims that North Korea could be responsible for "Guardians of Peace" and the Sony attack. I wouldn't be surprised if it was N.K, I mean it's pretty obvious. If this group is concentrating all their anger on The Interview alone, then it should be pretty clear that this is not your typical band of kids like the recently-unmasked "Lizard Squad."

So, what could this mean for the future of movie-goers and the U.S. itself? Are we now forced to not go to enjoy a movie or make a funny movie because of fear of retaliation from the little guy? Are we now North Korea's plaything to be pushed around and played with? Maybe. Maybe not. Keep in mind North Korea is all bark no bite. I'm sure they pulled this stunt off just to scare us, but it's always best to be safe right? Better to succumb to the little guys than to underestimate them and have millions of deaths on our hands (not that it should be anything new, I mean the pilgrims did just that with the original inhabitants of this land, but I'll skip the history lesson).

 The way I see it, the U.S. government should get off its ass and do something to take down this group of hackers. Either way, its in their best interest so that their dirty secrets stay in the dark, right? I mean, if they are cunning enough to spy on their own people and whatever other "life-saving" thing they're good at, why not protect the people correctly and go after the bad guys for once? Yes I know its North Korea, they're not to be taken seriously, but like I said before, right now the short bully has control of the bigger bully, and unless the big bully throws a punch, that short bully will go for the crotch kick. That's how I see it.

And there's my little update peeps. Thanks again for keeping up with me, thanks for reading, and don't forget to share with your friends if you found this interesting/entertaining. I'm trying my best to keep my blog updated while still being focused on school and work, especially this week. As always, stay up to date, stay safe, and watch yourselves out there. It's only a matter of time before a real-life Red Dawn could potentially happen. Have a good one :)
