到底是誰殺了"名嘴出任務" - 北韓介入好萊塢電影界

Hacking at Sony Over ‘The Interview’ Reveals Hollywood’s Failings, Too

索尼遭到駭客入侵，是好萊塢也有錯~

DEC. 21, 2014

  你有聽過"名嘴出任務"這部電影嗎?這部由索尼電影公司出產的惡搞電影描述兩個電視名嘴受


邀到北韓採訪首領"金正嗯"，想不到美國政府介入，想要利用兩個人出訪的機會進行暗殺。


有趣的是這樣一部無害的電影被北韓政府通緝，並且以各種方式介入該電影的上市，甚至對


索尼公司的員工提出死亡威脅，一部電影竟然變成社會事件，以下是NEW YORK TIMES對這


件事情的報導。






Kim Jong-un, who appears to be America’s newly self-appointed minister of culture, has decided that it is not enough that “The Interview,” the Seth Rogen film about North Korea that includes Mr. Kim’s assassination, will not be released. On Thursday, a message from the Guardians of Peace, the hacker group that breached the computer systems of Sony Pictures and warned against releasing the film, said “we want everything related to the movie, including its trailers, as well as its full version down from any website hosting them immediately.”

金正恩 - 美國最近"自行上任"的文化局長，決定在威脅終止劇情中包含刺殺金總理"名嘴出任務"的新片上映後，採取下一步動作。上星期四，一個來自於名叫"和平守護者"的駭客集團駭入索尼的電腦系統，並且警告該片的上映，訊息中提到"我們要求所有關於這部電影的東西，包括預告片，立刻從任何網站上消失"


The hackers promised that if Sony scrubbed all traces of the comedy from the Internet — an impossible task — they would cease a campaign that has lasted almost a month and has threatened employees and their families, embarrassed executives and potentially unleashed 100 terabytes of private company data into the world


Federal officials said Friday morning that they had extensive evidence that the North Korean government organized the attack. A few hours later,President Obama added his voice to the chorus of critics, including irate Hollywood actors, who say Sony and the nation’s theater operators should not have canceled the release. “We cannot have a society in which some dictator someplace can start imposing censorship here in the United States,” he said.


駭客集團表示假若索尼集團抹除網路上所有關於此片的紀錄(事實上根本不可能)，他們會停止已經持續將近一個月的對於索尼員工以及其家屬威脅行為、使經理蒙羞以及釋出大量公司機密。


中央政府在星期五早上表態現在有更進一步的證據指出這一波的攻擊是北韓政府所指使。歐巴馬總統也對此事件表示批評，包括挑釁好萊塢演員，並且提到索尼以及影院不應該取消上映。 "我們的社會不能允許外來的獨裁者禁播任何媒體" 歐巴馬在記者會中說道。

It was a remarkable and disorienting turn of events: a tiny, failing state that lacks the wherewithal to feed its own people was deciding which movies we can and cannot see, while the industry it had attacked watched silently from the sidelines, and the president of the United States felt compelled to step into an international confrontation catalyzed by a lowbrow comedy. After weeks of embarrassing disclosures from Sony’s hacked files, the endgame for the movie began on Tuesday, when the hackers invoked the devastation of September 11, and said that anyone who attended the opening on Christmas Day would be risking their lives. “We recommend you to keep yourself distant from the places at that time,” they wrote in a rambling email to news organizations. 

   這是一個重要而且扭曲的事件:一個連自己人民都無法餵飽的國家，竟然想要決定我們能看什麼，反觀被攻擊的電影工業竟然對此事件加以漠視，造成美國總統因為一個低俗的喜劇被迫面對國際媒體。 在索尼被竊取的檔案曝光後幾星期，事情在禮拜二開始一發不可收拾，駭客提出會做出如911一般的攻擊，任何在聖誕節(該片上映日)觀看的人將會受到生命威脅。"我們建議你那時保持與電影院的距離"，他們在一篇寫給新聞機構中的信中提到。 The industry, 

   

   old and new, digital and analog, should step across a line together, holding hands with consumers and letting the world know that we prize our goofy movies, along with the important ones, and the freedoms that they represent. If disparate competitors managed to set aside self-interest and acted for the common good, it could be the social viewing event of the century. I’d do anything to do my bit for artistic freedom, including watching a buddy-movie comedy that stars Mr. Rogen and James Franco.

Play the movie!!!

  給電影工業，不論新或舊，數位或類比(這邊應該是指有線與無線業者吧我想~)，應該撇除成見，彼此與消費者一起向世界表達我們看重自己的蠢電影，就如那些重要的電影一樣，以及其後面代表的自由。若是不同的競爭者可以撇除自我利益，並且力求共同的好處，將可以成為世紀的重要事件。我願意做出任何事情，為了爭取我的藝術自由，包括去看一場由Seth Rogen跟James Franco演的白爛喜劇。

把電影放出來吧!!!

   看完了這篇，不知道大家對這樣的事件有甚麼看法。個人認為作者有點小題大作，其中太多言論涉及以一個自由世界的標準去惡意批判共產主義，就像拿自己的家規套在別人身上一樣。但假如各位有注意過美國與北韓兩國之間的關係的話，應該可以發現北韓自從金正恩上任後，不但沒有向國際釋出善意，反而不斷做出挑釁行為 ；反觀美國在911之後在國際關係上一直趨於保守，深怕本土再一次受到攻擊，這是一個看得出來兩國之間互相往來模式的新聞，不知道你會不會去看，反正我是看定了~

計畫性的恐怖攻擊造成巴基斯坦癱瘓

Horror Paralyzes Pakistan After a Methodical Slaughter

PESHAWAR, Pakistan — As Pakistani Taliban gunmen strode through the corridors and classrooms of the Army Public School on Tuesday, spraying teachers and pupils with bullets, one paused from his grisly work to make a phone call.

“We have killed all of the children in the auditorium,” the militant, later identified by the military as Abuzar, told his handler. “What do we do now?”

“Wait for the army to arrive,” came the reply. “Kill them, then blow yourself up.”

That conversation, recounted by a senior security official who said it had been intercepted by Pakistani intelligence, offered sobering proof of the methodical approach and cold resolve of the Taliban militants who, over the course of an eight-hour rampage, killed 148 people in the Peshawar school, at least 132 of whom were children.

這星期二，巴基斯坦塔利班組織的槍手向白沙華陸軍公立學校的走廊與教室邁進，射殺老師與學生。

根據巴基斯坦國家安全部門轉述情報局所擷取的情報，其中一人停下攻擊，聯絡攻擊組織。

"我們已經把禮堂中的人全殺了，我們的下一步是什麼?" -恐怖分子Abuzar向工及總部通報。

"等待士兵前來，把他們殺了，再引爆身上的炸彈"

這段對話證明了塔利班激進份子的決心與計劃性槍殺校內的148人(其中132人以上為學生)。


On Wednesday, the horror of their actions paralyzed Pakistan, a country with much experience of Taliban atrocities and yet, in this instance, uniquely affected.

With flags at half-staff and businesses shuttered, Pakistanis seemed to be trapped between grief, anger and frustration, for once overcoming their divisions to unite in pain.


Peshawar became a city of small coffins. Through the day, mournful funeral processions wended through the otherwise deserted streets, as the victims of the massacre were escorted to mosques and graveyards.

禮拜三，剛發生恐怖行動癱瘓了整個巴基斯坦，儘管塔利班的暴行已眾所皆知，但在這次事件受到了極大的影響。當地商店停止營業並降半旗表示默哀，舉國上下瀰漫在痛苦、憤怒與沮喪的氛圍，撇除國內的分歧向意外致哀。

白沙華被兒童棺木所掩蓋，在這一天，哀傷的隊伍走過無人的街道，屠殺的受害者家屬被護送至清真寺及墓地。

The greatest carnage occurred inside the assembly hall, where soldiers said they had recovered over 100 bodies, many piled on each other. Shoes, copybooks and spectacles were scattered amid empty rows of seats where, according to witness accounts, students had cowered in a vain attempt to evade the killers. They were singled out, one by one, and shot in the head.

Some teachers tried to intervene. An army officer was giving first aid lessons on the main stage of the auditorium when the gunmen burst in. A female teacher, officers said, had begged the gunmen to let the children go. She was also executed.

最大的殺傷發生在學校禮堂中，超過一百具屍體堆在一起，學生的鞋子、作業本及眼鏡散落一地，根據生還者表示，在抵抗失敗後學生被一個個分開並處決。

某部分的老師曾試圖干涉徒恐怖份子。當塔利班殺進禮堂時，一位軍官正在教學生如何急救。事後軍官提到有一位女老師在跪求恐怖份子放過學生後遭也遭到處決。


In the Taliban’s cruel calculus, those children’s bodies went toward balancing accounts with the Pakistani military, still pressing its antimilitant offensive in the northwestern tribal region. Most of the students were the children of military personnel, the militants’ spokesman said, seeking to publicly justify the gunmen’s targets. Ms. Qazi, the slain principal, was married to a retired army colonel.

  在塔莉班冷血的計畫中，射殺這些學生是為了向巴基斯坦軍方在西北方的部落進行的反恐行動報仇，而學校大部分的學生是來自於軍人家庭。激進份子表示此舉是為了制裁已被槍殺的前總理Qazi女士嫁給一個退役上校。

There were recriminations inside the army, too. One officer noted with regret that the school had reported a Taliban threat in August. Some teachers openly worried that the school’s perimeter walls were vulnerable to attack, he said. But nothing was done.
In the nearby tribal belt, the Pakistani Army mounted fresh airstrikes.And on the television talk shows, stony-faced analysts clad in black offered lengthy analyses of what the army forces must do next — and whether, united in pain, their country could also unite to stop the Taliban.
  一位軍官指控軍方在八月時曾忽略校方提出的恐怖攻擊潛在危機，老師們擔心校園四周的圍牆非常容易被攻破，但在當時政府並未做出任何回應。在鄰近的塔利班據點，巴基斯坦軍方開始了新一波的空襲。在一次電視上的播出中，一位學者分析了軍方接下來如何回應 ，並且是否能夠記取這次慘痛的教訓，全國上下一心抵抗塔利班恐怖份子。
