>with the exception of Iraq, afghanistan, korea, cuba, and vietnam at no real point in these battles was our technological sophistication or "firepower" a decisive capability that led to a victory. It led to plenty of victories. The NSA straight up hacked into a European telco Gemalto (the world’s largest sim card manufacturer) to steal their encryption keys in order to spy on people in the middle east and the entire world in real time. They most certainly used this data to drone strike people and for espionage. NK has some decent hacking groups but is certainly no match for US and EU nation-state backed hackers. In fact, I would not be surprised if the US and other world governments have 24/7 satellite surveillance on NK and the few devices/computers that are there are infected with their malware in supplychain intercept attacks. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/feb/19/nsa-gchq-sim-card-billions-cellphones-hacking https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/feb/19/nsa-gchq-sim...
