There are so many jokes to be made about this country. I'm guilty as making them and finding them humorous. But there are people who live in this country, who can't escape, who are struck by fear, who are brainwashed, who know nothing of the outside world.

Apparently its really easy for North Koreans to get smuggled media from other countries, and a lot of the guards look the other way or take bribes. Most North Koreans probably realize how bad their situation is but don't say anything because they don't want to go to a labor camp.

It has a system built in pretty deep which watermarks files. https://youtu.be/KTBemKiSgWI?t=1737 https://youtu.be/KTBemKiSgWI?t=1737 If the government gets a copy of the file from someone, they can to some degree trace back where else the file has been.
