This week we've had a front row seat to arguably the most direct form of cyber threats our country has seen in terms of our day to day life. We spent close to $12 BILLION dollars in movie theaters last year watching movies...but this week, we were denied one of America's most beloved forms of entertainment, and one of the WORLD'S largest companies (Sony) experienced a hack that amounted to millions and millions of dollars in lost revenue, exposed trade secrets, foiled business moves and, ultimately, a work of comedy satire being "banned" from our view because of nothing more than fear.
Our government isn't responsible for controlling these companies or the actions they make in this regard...but to me, I feel if this threat is real in the way it has been described by the media, shouldn't our government have a much larger response to such an "attack"?
Personally, I think the whole thing reeks of bullsh*t...from the hack itself to the details being released surrounding it.
