Pretty obvious if it was really them behind the Sony hack, it
was outsourced.

For the few elite that do have Internet in DPRK it would be 1) a big
inconvenience which would annoy them a lot and 2) they have to transmit
what they want attacked to the outsourced crew (whoever they might be)
somehow.  I doubt the outsourced group has a fax#.

I am pretty sure that they have fax machines in Washington Dee Cee.
