Kim Jong Il reportedly told visiting South Korean President Roh Moo- hyun in Pyongyang last week that he is an "Internet expert." If so, we'd love to see his "favorites" list. That makes him about the only Web maven in North Korea, where Internet service is banned and possession of a VCR or DVD player is also a criminal offense. Even radios that aren't permanently tuned to the official government station are illegal.
I just find it so amazing how important information is to the freedom of people. It is so interesting to me to see that it is shut off when a leader lays siege to his own people. Could it be more important than, say, water?
