I'm skeptikal of NK having done this, so I've been pondering who then did. It could be a random group that is not affiliated to a nation-state. It could though be one of the first large false flag cyber operations that we are witnessing.
We have seen similar non-cyber evidence in order to gain public support for war, the Iraq Dossier springs to mind. Maybe we ate seeing a CIA/NSA experiment to see how far they can persuade public opinion into the viability of attacking NK.
If Facebook are able to run 'mood altering' tests on users, I bet the USG are interested in similar types of online propaganda campaigns and the kind of success rates that are possible.
Just me going off in left field...
