Re: That's nice

Given that the FBI is an internal police force, investigating on US soil, surely once the perpetrators have been positively identified, they stop work. I mean, there's nothing further to be gained unless you think you can drag NK into a US court. Given that that's unlikely, there should be no harm releasing the evidence so that we can see that the sanctions are justified. The FBI aren't (officially) spies so there should be no outside-US, NK informants to protect.

If you aren't charging anyone and you aren't releasing the evidence, keep out of foreign affairs, especially since a country with an under-developed tech industry was probably just taken advantage of.

And yes, I suppose that this means that since the US hacked servers in Iceland, Angela Merkal's phone, and lots of other hacks, ddos attacks and spam intrusions originate in the US, we should all be imposing sanctions on the US, right?
