Hacked Disney Movie Being Held For Ransom
The Hollywood Reporter has reported that Disney CEO Bob Iger has revealed hackers are holding a Disney movie "hostage" for a huge ransom in Bitcoin or else they will release it piece at a time. Iger is working with federal investigators & has stated that Disney won't pay. Later on in the day Deadline revealed that they had learned it was May 26th's upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales that fell victim to this piracy. It won't take Alanis Morrissette to find the irony in that. All joking aside though, this sucks. A lot of people work really hard to get these major motion pictures of the ground, & they all fall victim to a stunt like this. I hope this gets figured out before it becomes a real problem throughout the industry. If you see this film pirated, no matter how much you have to fight the urge, don't watch it. That's the only way I can think to not let these pricks win. Tell us your thoughts in the comments.
