No. No matter who is responsible, a media outlet has succumbed to censorship by a group that has operated outside of a State's legal framework.
I'd like to see Sony "leak" the film online.
To demonstrate that hackers have no interest in suppressing speech, quashing controversy, or being intimidated by vague threats, we ask that Sony allow the hacker community to distribute "The Interview" for them on the 25th of December.http://www.2600.com/?q=content/offer-sony-2600
Sony's decision might also be a good marketing plan. Remember when they took down the Twinikies and everybody wanted to buy them and then after a few months they put it in circulation again.
I believe Sony is trying to'milk' the fact that they got hacked and make some profit out of it
I doubt it purely based on the fact that the movie was supposed to be released at the movie-profit climax of the year. If they really wanted to make money from it, they would have done it at any other point in the year and released it on the christmas date it just had cancelled
Are you asking about Sony's decision not to distribute the movie The Interview announced earlier this week? No, I don't think Sony made the right decision. Sony should let willing people watch the movie and see how the world reacts to that.
I personally wonder if they really cancelled the release based on a threat of violence or if there is something that hasn't been exposed yet that they are more worried about.
