All of North Korea’s Internet gets taken down

22 September 2016

All 28 of North Korea’s websites were taken down yesterday after their DNS addresses were exposed to the public.

The addresses were posted on Reddit, causing a surge of visitors to the websites, reports The Mirror.

“While a number of North Korea’s websites are unavailable to access, clues to their content can be derived from their addresses. Cooks.org.kp is a website devoted to recipes while kcna.kp is a news agency.”

However there wasn’t much to look at as two redditors were quick to point out:

“I think there are more websites on the internet in GTA 5 than NK,” one commentator pointed out.

“Correct. North Korea – 28 websites. GTA V – 83 websites. I think it’s safe to say that San Andreas is more technologically advanced than North Korea,” said another.
