The Sony Hack Was An Inside Job

The tech community is pretty unanimous in its informed conclusion: the recent Sony hack and release of confidential information was likely an "inside job", and has nothing to do with North Korea.

Instead of ranting about this, it's better to point you to an expert on the topic, Marc Rogers, who does a good job explaining this conclusion.

Have a quick glance at Marcs Security Ramblings to see what he thinks.

My concern is the rhetoric from the USA - blaming North Korea for the subterfuge.

An outright escalation of an already tense relationship.
