Sony hackers threaten violence against moviegoers who see 'The Interview'

The group that hacked Sony Pictures has leaked another batch of data to the public, this time accompanied with an ominous message that overtly threatens violence for the first time.

The message accompanying the leak, posted on the anonymous Pastebin website, foresees a "bitter fate" for those who choose to see Sony's upcoming movie, The Interview, in cinemas. It also says that "the world will be full of fear" and references 9/11.

The full text of the message, in the hackers' usual jumbled English, is as follows:

(If your house is nearby, you’d better leave.)

Whatever comes in the coming days is called by the greed of Sony Pictures Entertainment.

All the world will denounce the SONY. Read more...
