Newt Gingrich says Sony hack by North Korea is ‘cyberwar’ and we lost

No one should kid themselves. With the Sony collapse America has lost its first cyberwar. This is a very very dangerous precedent.

America will NEVER give in to the demands of terrorists! (unless they don't like our movies in which case we will fold like a beach chair.)

.@RobLowe it wasn't the hackers who won, it was the terrorists and almost certainly the North Korean dictatorship, this was an act of war

Sony should release "the Interview" online for free so North Koreans can't censor American creativity–should have Korean language version
