im really not one for conspiracy theories but this one just seems so obvious.

* sony gets hacked.

* a few news articles about it.

* cia torture facilities get leaked and admitted.

* news coverage all over about it.

* US federal government does something its never done before and calls out a specific nation state as the attacker for the sony breach.

* news coverage of sony skyrockets and cia stuff disappears from media.

* us government goes on to say that they need to increase their "cyber defense" by having more control over the internet to protect individuals and companies from other nation states.

edit: oh also wasnt it just earlier this week that there was an article on hn about sock puppets?
