Abstract
Broadcast Transcript: Most North Korean civilians have no access to the internet or anything wifi but the government does. In fact, Kim Jong Il trains an army of top notch hackers who have been blamed for developing software that paralyzed South Korean government and financial websites. This army also stands accused of hacking into popular South Korean gaming sites, amassing an astronomical number of points and then selling those points to mad gamers who wish to boost the power of their avatars. The money goes to Office 39, a Kimmian slush fund used to finance his nuclear weapons program and to buy expensive foreign gifts to give to those whose favor he wishes to curry. You've heard of the DMZ... Well, this is the e MZ. #ceas #hacker #NorthKorea
