Yep, little show of force on someone's part.

A computer nerd's fantasy. "Hey, we are gonna give you an unlimited budget and the best equipment to come up with the most destructive virus you can." Then, now they get to see it in action.

I was surprised they actually unleashed a virus. Once you make a virus public, your adversaries are able to study and game plan accordingly.

I would guess that it's probably a fairly low-level virus compared to their true capability.

Who said it was a virus? Doesn't their internet access come from China? Appears to me more like China reprimanding their red headed stepchild .

They have a good bit. I think South Korea has some (I know they have other lines of communication).

China is a strategic ally. So I doubt they would turn off or ruin their connection. Secondly, all the reports have said the the outing has been "progressive" which would seem to support a virus over a cutting off of the lines.

Plus, I'd like the believe that Obama has some sort of spine when it comes to a clearly inferior foe.

No convincing evidence that DPRK was behind the initial hack.

No evidence (so far) that America is behind this.

If you think the shadowy war on terror is fun, this is going to be a hoot.

The New York Times article listed a good bit of evidence against North Korea.

The Internet comes out of dallas texas. It's spread around the world from there.

Clearly releasing celebrity emails was North Korea's first salvo in bringing America to its knees.
