Was it North Korea that attacked Sony? Hackers spoof: FBI is an idiot

The hacker group "Guardians of Peace" that attacked Sony Pictures and tried to prevent the release of "The Interview" sent out its latest message on Saturday, this time mainly mocking and spoofing the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). The hacker group said in the message that "the FBI is an idiot."

According to the US news website Daily Beast, the "Guardians of Peace" organization posted a new message on the Pastebin website on Saturday. The full content is as follows: This message comes from the "Guardians of Peace" organization. The FBI's investigation results are so good that you may have seen what we did with your own eyes. Congratulations on your success. The FBI is the best in the world. You will see the gift given to you on the website Youtube. Enjoy it!

The link in the message shows a Japanese-language parody video with the phrase "You are idiots" repeated over and over, accompanied by music. The video shows the "Peace Guardians" group mocking the FBI's "great investigation" - an investigation that led the U.S. government to declare on Friday that North Korea was the real culprit behind the hacking of Sony Pictures.

The video "You are idiots" may be mocking and criticizing the FBI for blaming North Korea for the Sony hack. At present, some industry experts still believe that the US government's claim that the hacker's program for the attack on Sony Pictures is similar to that of other cyber attacks launched by North Korea is questionable.

Relevant U.S. agencies believe that there is sufficient evidence to show that North Korea is the mastermind behind the hacking attack on Sony Pictures. For this reason, U.S. President Obama vowed on Friday that he would respond accordingly to this most destructive hacking operation in history against American companies.
