10. Sony Hacking Scandal Shakes up Hollywood

Throughout November and December of 2014, Sony was the victim of a widespread computer hacking that released personal emails, scripts and movie footage to the public. One of the demands of the “Guardians of Peace”, the group claiming responsibility for the hack, was for Sony not to release The Interview, a Seth Rogen/James Franco film about an attempted assassination of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un. The cyber attack also made public Sony employees’ names, job titles, home addresses, bonus plans, and salaries, amounting in some embarrassing and compromising leaks.
