What exactly was Sony doing illegally that this leak apparently exposed?
"If you give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest of men,
I will find something in them which will hang him."
Sony Pictures is the American subsidiary of a multinational corporation - merely by virtue of their size and power, they have to be guilty of something.Sony has been engaged in some questionable activity with questionable organizations making questionable deals. The reason is transparency so illegal activity can be exposed.
