Daniel Craig and James Bond Script Targeted in Sony Hack; Julia Roberts and Brad Pitt Phone Numbers Leaked [NEWS UPDATE]

The Sony hackers calling themselves The Guardians of Peace are starting to endanger everyone's chance at seeing next summer's big blockbusters on time, as well as the lives of several A-list Hollywood celebrities. Not only have the North Korean sympathizers released information about the details of up and coming movies like the new potential Spider-Man and Superman movies, the cyber terrorists have stolen the latest James Bond script SPECTRE in its entirety. According to the latest gossip news updates, the internet villains seem to dislike Daniel Craig as much as Seth Rogen and James Franco's Interview acting. Word has it that Craig personal phone number, as well as personal travel details and aliases were also released along with other Hollywood icons like Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt and Tom Hanks, just to name a few.

The Sony Hackers are taking things to a whole new level, with their releasing of the personal addresses, phone numbers and aliases of many very well-known Hollywood stars, including Daniel Craig, Julia Roberts and Tom Hanks among others.

According to the Telegraph, the terrorists are even choosing to compromise the safety of celebrities that are in no way involved in their war against The Interview:

"Hackers believed to be linked to North Korea leaked contact details for Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts and Tom Hanks along with details of the aliases used by a host of Hollywood stars when they travel incognito.

"Among the stars who had their aliases leaked were Daniel Craig, Natalie Portman, Tobey Maguire and Sarah Michelle Gellar."

Not only have they outed Daniel Craig's presumed alias of Sir William Aundersnatch reports USA Today they also targeted his 007 persona as well:

"The producers of James Bond films have acknowledged that an early version of the screenplay for the new movie SPECTRE was among the material stolen in the massive cyberattack on Sony Pictures Entertainment.

"They are concerned that third parties who received the screenplay might seek to publish it -- and warned the material is subject to copyright protection around the world."

Speaking of the people who are actively disseminating the Sony info dump -- Aaron Sorkin dressed down the American media for practically acting as accomplices to the hackers in the predatory way they were exploiting Sony's misfortune (via NY Times):

"If you close your eyes you can imagine the hackers sitting in a room, combing through the documents to find the ones that will draw the most blood.

"And in the next room are the American journalists doing the same thing."

What do you think? Does Aaron Sorkin have a point about the media being partly responsible making sure the the hacked emails and documents do the most damage to careers, reputations and feeling as possible, or are they just doing their jobs -- giving the American public what they want?
