Wikipedia has already been removing material from revision histories for years for many reasons,[1] including legal reasons such as copyright infringement and libel.[2] This is not exactly new terrain for Wikipedia. I would also say that I think Wikimedia decides strategically which countries to have a physical presence in, and therefore follow the laws of that country, and which ones to stay out of. I don't think Wikimedia will have to worry about a North Korean court decision, because they are not in North Korea.
