    Reddit is no different than the elderly sharing Facebook memes.

    Gen question, is there any policy against watching foreign media or is it an access issue because of the sanctions?

      There’s restrictions on the internet like in China (more strict though), but there is access to foreign media, like with the Pyongyang Int. Film Festival (annual). The reason there are internet restrictions is risk of attack/surveillance and anti-DPRK propaganda, although there is also the angle of access given the DPRK’s development, not to put it down but some areas don’t have much technology.
