Is it just a coincidence that North Korea has a massive blackout of the internet?

Do you believe it is just a coincidence or perhaps on purpose? It is reported that coverage has been sporadic the last few days but is now totally out? The US has denied blame.

    A coincidence is unlikely, the uninted states may have had had something to do with it very secretly or maybe the attack on North Korea and Sony did not come from with in the united states or North Korea at all it could have come from Europe or some agency or nobody knows about.

    In a dictatorship there is no such thing as coincidence what Kim gives with one hand he can take back when he feels like it especially if there is criticism of the way he runs the country.

    Not a coincidence, I believe the North Koreans did it there selves just so they could blame the US, because they always need to keep there people in fear of an imaginary enemy in order to maintain order in there crazy little county.

    Maybe, or possibly one "good" hacker group is punishing a "bad" hacker group and the country which hired them.
