          It’s interesting because it’s essentially the opposite of the idea behind Linux. Using Linux specifically to censor and spy on people is diabolical, but it makes sense why they chose it.

            The idea behind Linux is to create an operating system anyone can use in any way they want.
            That includes the North Korean government using it to spy on their people.

              Sounds more like a BSD kind of idea, to be honest. The GNU idea is to let specifically end-users have control over their own computer, not some third-party.
