Naturally, the North Korean propaganda machine is in full swing. Its government's official paper denies the hacking allegations, insisting that they're an attempt to distract from a recently passed anti-terrorism law that critics are worried will give the South too much power to spy on residents. It's "provocative" and "heinous," the North says. Those claims are a bit rich given that the North designed an operating system explicitly to spy on citizens and crush dissent, but they're par for the course from a country that lavishes rewards on its hackers while publicly pretending that they don't exist.
