The episode began with a crime committed by highly skilled computer hackers, followed by a massive public relations campaign conducted by major players in the climate change denial movement
Mann goes on to write that "Digital forensics reported by the Guardian indicated that the hacker was based in eastern North America..."

It's pretty obvious to this reader on Climategate that it was someone who Phil Jones passes in the hallway - an inside job.
As for Mann, his "hockey stick" was handily debunked long ago. Why he is still at Penn State is beyond me.
Shitstorms are not a "massive public relations campaign" - shitstorms are just a lot of people who have reason to be angry.
And for whistle-blowing you don't need to be a skilled hacker – having a spine and a brain when you see something wrong suffices.
