Looks like Kim Jong-Un won’t be playing any multi-user games for a while:
North Korea’s Internet connection with the world has been hit by a series of outages in the last 24 hours, according to a researcher.
Problems began on Monday morning, local time in Korea, when the handful of websites hosted on servers in Pyongyang became unresponsive. Over several hours, connectivity was spotty with connections sometimes succeeding but sometimes not.
“I haven’t seen such a steady beat of routing instability and outages in [North Korean Internet space] before,” said Doug Madory, director of Internet analysis at Dyn Research. “Usually there are isolated blips, not continuous connectivity problems. I wouldn’t be surprised if they are absorbing some sort of attack presently.”
The news has led to speculation that it might be the result of a promised but unspecified response by the U.S. to an attack against Sony Pictures, but it’s impossible to determine the cause from the network problems.
The Chinese control every politician and military officer in North Korea.
They also control the North Korean internet servers.
If the Internet went down in North Korea it was because China crashed it.
North Korea and Kim Jong-Un are about as much of a threat to the US as Cuba has been over the past 50 years.
The neo-con interventionists (warmongers) among us require fake enemies so that the American people can be fooled into believing that we need to spend billions of dollars every year on defense contractors.
The US spends more on defense each year then the rest of the world combined. Why do you suppose that is? Does the rest of the world hate us so much that we are require to spend those dollars? That’s what our politicians would have us believe. But they only want us to believe that so that they can steal our tax dollars and give them away to the arms manufacturers.
The majority of people in this country are staring at ghosts being projected on the walls and thinking that what they’re seeing is reality.
Who knew that there were dial up servers?
