WikiLeaks today published “The Sony Archives,” an online database containing 173,132 emails and 30,287 documents stolen in the 2014 Sony Pictures hack.
According to WikiLeaks, the leaked details contain emails between the company and the White House, and there are "nearly 100 US government email addresses" in the database.
Some of the emails expose the connection between Sony and the Democratic Party, such as Sony employees' participation in a charity dinner and campaigns to help Democratic New York Governor Andrew Cuomo get elected.
"The files show the inner workings of a major multinational corporation," WikiLeaks editor-in-chief Julian Assange said in a blog post.
"They are worthy of a geopolitical conflict. They belong to the public. WikiLeaks will ensure they stay there."
After the 2014 hack, the White House named North Korea as the attacker behind the breaches. North Korea allegedly carried out the attacks in retaliation for the release of the film “The Interview,” which featured a plot to assassinate the country’s leader, Kim Jong-un. Shortly after, North Korea accidentally shut down the entire country’s internet.
Many of the leaked documents made headlines last year, following leaks from the hackers themselves.
