  Once again, here's an opportunity to both appreciate more drama coming out of North Korea, but also to look at the power of social networking and how it affects citizens around the world. Is this newsworthy or is it just entertainment? Could the actions of Anonymous be considered legitimate? Does this deserve to be covered?

  Interesting. Thanks for sharing, Jack! It's always a fine line with Anonymous, and it depends person to person. There are some hacks I think are awesome and justified, and others I'm really offended by. I guess, to my personal biases, I'd consider this more warranted, but seeing as it's not for the purpose of disseminating information for the public, but more to be a general nuisance, I support it less. But I think it's them voicing their own opinions, and I feel very limited sympathy for the North Korean government.
