    “evade international sanctions”

    Good; I keep seeing articles that try to explain the DPRK’s circumvention of sanctions as a bad thing when it’s the sanctions that should be considered criminal.

    Some of the projects included work from season 3 of the Amazon show Invincible, which is produced by California-based Skybound Entertainment.

    Great to know that outsourcing labor to underpaid workers in the Global South is going strong!

    North Korea’s internet is a small—and fragile—space. The repressive nation only has 1,024 IP addresses and around 30 websites that connect to the global internet. While there is a limited internal intranet, only a few thousand of the country’s 26 million people can get on the internet. When they do, it’s highly controlled: These select few North Koreans can use the internet for an hour at a time and have a person sitting next to them approving their use every five minutes.

    Meh clearly an exaggeration. DPRK does have very few public ips but there is nothing preventing them from NATing or using VPNs.

      Love to censor the entire internet for surveillance or control or whatever only to still end up at “guy sitting next to everyone going on the computer”. Like just have that then, that’s way cheaper!

      It’s cute you think they have that many people available to be internet monitors when so many of them are pushing trains.
