"Hackers" have struck the POTC franchise once again (this time involving the movie/film franchise with the expected release of POTC 5).
Will the malicious intent ever stop?

well this sucks i wanted to watch it for my birthday :/Disney’s upcoming Johnny Depp film Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales has been pilfered by ransom hackers seeking payment. This is 5 hours old no joke
A CNET article I had read claims that the person(s) responsible are threatening to leak 5 minutes of film in 20 minute increments if the ransomware attack is not taken seriously. However, it's important to note that info. is still pouring in and _today we should all have a better idea of what has been done/what "will" be done as a result.Lol release it in bits at a time? These are possibly the dumbest hackers of all time. Nobody is gonna watch 15 minute segments of a 2.5 hora movie then wait weeks for the next 15 minutes.
Correct me if I'm wrong, however isn't there a chance that (in this case) it is all a publicity stunt?
I've thought about that too. But, I do believe @Kat Five Knives is right. Besides, Disney has promoted POTC 5 readily and more so within CHINA than with any other POTC film. Given the fact that details are emerging that North Korea could possibly be behind the recent "WannaCry" ransomware attacks, I want to reiterate that North Korean hackers (I do believe) were behind the major Sony Pictures attack in the past and also...that China is placing pressure on North Korea currently on account of things. As such, some time needs to pass to understand fully the whole implication of this attack targeted at Disney.Correct me if I'm wrong, however isn't there a chance that (in this case) it is all a publicity stunt?

Hmmmmmm ... Well I know for a fact this was not a plan from the TLOPO devs anyway........................so is this the Devs' cunning plan to ensure that the film is not released before the TLoPO update?
