This is a normal post No seriously, Sony employs over 140,000 people and you think they're fair game?
The personal details of those employees is now in the hands of hackers or the N Korean state.
Names and addresses
Employment records.
Medical records
Bank details

Any you think they deserve all that? Because "This is war"

This is a normal post I think I've made my point
I don't have much more to add.

Hacking is fucked up, I work in IT security and I'm a programmer but I've never wanted to hack anyone as I don't agree with it.

they were warned
they ignored warnings
their lack of IT security didn't protect their staffs data adequately enough
they stubbornly continued to ignore further warnings
they finally caved in for the wrong reasons

The security of the staffs data should of been Sony's priority, but unfortunately it wasn't.

BTW, Sony Pictures was hacked, not the entirety of Sony.

This is a normal post There you go again.
Your words are unambiguous, yet it's my reading of them that's at fault?

This is a normal post Now it's my fault that your point (if you actually have one) isn't clear.

So you're blaming the victims because Sony didn't have strong enough security to stand up to a nation states cyber warfare program?

Nice bit of blame relocation there.

This is a normal post I'm not blaming the victims at all
But if you want to get technical, who do you think secures their data? That will be staff who work for Sony. It's also responsibility of the staff not to use retarded passwords which only makes hacking easier.

Nice bit of completely missing the point in anything I say there.

This is a normal post Ah the old "Make a post then put them on Ignore and get the last word gambit", pretty childish.
