From Crackberry:

"Thanksgiving this year was a bad time for Sony Pictures Entertainment, and that's putting it lightly. Hackers known as The Guardians of Peace managed to take over entire portions of their internal systems which led to the theft of a ton of personally identifiable information about Sony Pictures Entertainment employees, movie scripts, information about movie deals, and even full versions of unreleased Sony movies. Because of the hack, Sony had to find new ways to communicate with each other and keep the organization running during that time and as a new report from the WSJ [Subscription required] highlights, they turned to BlackBerry in some cases."

    BlackBerry. If you want to be sure nobody hacks your device, be sure nobody else is using ones like it.
