North Korea calls Sony hack 'a righteous deed'
NEW YORK (CNNMoney)
North Korea says it doesn't know who is behind the massive and embarrassing hack of Sony Pictures. But the government sure isn't upset it happened.
Hackers recently stole and posted online over 100 terabytes of data from the studio, including full movies, private employee records and revealing internal memos.
The attack is one of the most consequential in history and some experts theorized it was retaliation for an upcoming Sony movie about the country.
North Korean state-run media -- KCNA, widely viewed as the government's propaganda arm -- applauded the attack.
"The hacking into the SONY Pictures might be a righteous deed of the supporters and sympathizers with the DPRK," it said, using the acronyms of its official name, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. "The hacking is so fatal that all the systems of the company have been paralyzed, causing the overall suspension of the work and supposedly a huge ensuing loss."
North Korea's response was riddled with anti-U.S. and anti-South Korean rhetoric.
The statement didn't outright say the North Korean government was not responsible. But KCNA called North Korean involvement "a wild rumor" and the government suggested it couldn't be behind a cyberattack on "a country far across the ocean."
"We do not know where in America the SONY Pictures is situated and for what wrongdoings it became the target of the attack nor we feel the need to know about it."
Experts point to several signs of North Korean involvement. They say there are similarities between the malware used in this attack and that from a different cyber blitz against South Korea. Both were written in Korean, an unusual language in the world of cyber crime.
Sony (SNE) is also about to release a comedy about an assassination attempt on North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
In June, North Korea said it would view the Seth Rogen and James Franco movie as an "act of war," and on Sunday, it said the movie depicts "a terrorist act while hurting the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK."

台風２２号 比首都マニラに接近へ12月8日 4時07分 強い台風２２号は、去年１１月の台風で大きな被害が出たフィリピン中部を比較的ゆっくりとした速度で西に向かって進み、横断しています。
８日から９日にかけて首都マニラにも接近する見込みで、フィリピン政府は学校を休校にするなどして警戒を強めています。
強い台風２２号は、フィリピン中部を時速１０キロと比較的ゆっくりとした速度で西北西に進み、９日にかけてフィリピンを横断する見通しで、気象当局はルソン島などに警報を出して、暴風や大雨による土砂崩れ、沿岸部では高潮への警戒を呼びかけています。
国家災害対策局によりますと、これまでに、台風が接近したルソン島南部などで電柱が倒れたり、土砂やがれきが道路に入り込んだりするなどの被害が出ているほか、中部パナイ島で避難所に避難していた１歳の女の子が低体温症で亡くなるなど、２人が台風の影響で死亡しました。
また、台風が最初に上陸したサマール島などでは停電が続いているということです。
フィリピン中部では、去年１１月の台風３０号の直撃で死者・行方不明者およそ７３００人に上る大きな被害が出たことから、フィリピン政府は今回、積極的に住民に避難を呼びかけるなど警戒を強めていて、これまでに８９万人余りが学校や教会などに避難しています。
今後、台風は西北西に進み、次第に首都マニラに接近する見込みで、フィリピン政府はマニラやその周辺の地域で８日にすべての学校を休校にして、災害対応などを除いた公務員も休業にすることを決めています。
