Hackers Galaxy Of Peace Threaten To Leak Intimate Information On Cameron Diaz, Angelina Jolie
The hackers, who are behind the five Sony movie leaks, have now threatened to leak intimate details about Hollywood actors and actresses. According to reports, renowned stars such as Daniel Craig, Angelina Jolie and Cameron Diaz may end up as the latest victims of hackers.
Daily Star UK reports that some movie stars' personal files are feared to have been stolen after Sony Pictures Entertainment's global computer network allegedly suffered a cyber attack. The hackers reportedly call themselves the Guardians of Peace, and it is being said that they are likely to leak intimate information on Daniel, Angelina and Cameron, soon. It is being speculated that they may have already done that. The report claims that the hackers' demands are still unclear. A source from the Hollywood studio has claimed that all computers of the company have now been frozen. Staff members are prohibited from logging on to their computers through the company's WiFi connection "until further notice."
It has already been reported that following the hackers' attack, five new movies from Sony Pictures were leaked across several copyright-infringing file-sharing hubs. Copies of the four unreleased Sony movies, including the highly anticipated "Annie" and "Fury" are being devoured by downloaders. "Fury" in particular is said to have been downloaded by 888,000 unique IP addresses ever since it appeared on the widely visited peer-to-peer networks, becoming the second most downloaded movie currently being pirated even. The movie is not yet out of the theatres.
On the other hand, Annie" has been downloaded by over 184,000 unique IP address. The movie is set to hit the screens in three week time. Sony movies such as "Mr. Turner," "Still Alice," and "To Write Love On Her Arms" have also been leaked online. According to Variety, a Sony spokesperson has said in a statement, "The theft of Sony Pictures Entertainment content is a criminal matter, and we are working closely with law enforcement to address it."
When the attack on the studio's computer network happened last Nov. 24, an image of a skeleton appeared on the company's computers plus a message, presumably from the hackers, which reads: "Hacked by #GOP." The message also threatened that "secrets and top secrets" of the company would be divulged to the public.
