The lawyers of Sony are now demanding to online news publishing or any news outlets that as much as possible do not anymore post or stop publishing the materials that hackers stole from Sony including the script of James Bond. They are also asking that if news outlet could help them destroy the material instead of sharing to everyone.
Atty. David Boies wrote a letter to the American news organizations as well as to New York Times and the Bloomberg to let these news outlets cooperate with them especially in destroying leaked documents due to hacking. The materials including the James Bond's script is just one of the many materials being stolen by cyber hackers.
In the letter, Boies mentioned: The Sony Pictures "does not consent to your possession, review, copying, dissemination, publication, uploading, downloading, or making any use of the stolen information, and to request your cooperation in destroying the stolen information." He also added in the letter that if they failed to follow what was instructed, Sony Pictures "will have no choice but to hold you responsible for any damage or loss."
The producers of the Sony Pictures also discovered that people who were responsible of hacking infiltrated their computers too aside from stole the previous version of the Bond's script. The spokesperson of the Sony said that hacking happened last month stopped the productions of several films and that includes the SPECTRE are just rumors.
The hackers are said to be as Guardians of Peace and they are suspected that they are linked with North Korea, the mastermind of the hacking. Yet their identities were not yet confirmed.
Aside from the James Bond script, another stolen material is Amy Pascal's email to Scott Rudin talking about Angelina Jolie. She described the Jolie as "minimally talented spoilt brat" having a "rampaging ego."
"The content of my emails were insensitive and inappropriate but are not an accurate reflection of who I am," Pascal said. "Although this was a private communication that was stolen, I accept full responsibility for what I wrote and apologize to everyone who was offended."
