The motive is that a company that straddles the two countries that North Korea hates the most created a movie obviously designed to be a gross insult to their leader.

I'm sure there could be ancillary benefits to the hack too - technology they could copy, etc.

The motive is definitely there, but all the evidence still points to a disgruntled ex-employee.

Jokes aside, I have no idea what's going on with this whole story.
