I want to be a laptop farmer. Sounds like a solid gig if the pay is decent.
Ok how do I get hired by the dprk
They have cubicles…
I never had cubicles at any of the places I worked
How do I help you to set it up in EU?
I want to run the laptop farm… how do I get that sweet gig?
I would totally set up a laptop farm and VPN concentrator or whatever for like maintenance cost + 1% net for the ability to purchase DPRK gear, posters, and other merch at whatever markup they want.
Begging for that DPRK blind box subscription
Juche Box
Finally a good subscription box.

yeah I have a particular set of skills (i can go on computer) that make me perfect for the job of laptop turner-on-er
shit id love to get a remote job again. no need for schemes, i’m good with computer. ok maybe figure out how to pass as usian so they will hire me.
commuting and everything else about physically being at the office in my line of work is dumb as fuck.
Hey Kim my house has fibre you’d get a real good connection from here
Calling it, this is all 100% fake actually (good things never happen and the DPRK doing this would be super cool) and is just being made up to, duh duh duh duhhhhh, force remote workers back into the office!
Real patriots spend 3 hours in traffic everyday.
so that’s the source. Noice.
Not quite, it’s a parody of the original parody, “downloading communism”, which is itself a play on old propaganda posters.

Do you want to get a Falling Down? Cuz this is how you get a Falling Down.
Well maybe if you wrote it in fucking English he could fucking understand it.
You clearly have not seen the film. That’s okay but no need to be a dick about it. Also I have no respect for the english language
That’s literally a line from the film
Oh sorry then lol I haven’t seen the move in like 20 years myself.
No no, carry on, English is stupid
If there isn’t a court case demonstrating these americans that do the laptop in america part then it’s total bullshit. They would take someone to court for collaborating with DPRK even if they’re innocent.
I love the language used throughout this article, calling the companies victims, saying the North Koreans “raked in” almost $900k
they got jobs! They DID WORK and then GOT PAID! No company was at any point a victim unless you mean “a victim of being lied to”
Poor struggling business owners being robbed blind by parasitic workers stripping away what little wealth they have with the dastardly excuse of having “earned it.”
shit how do I get a job at a laptop farm
I wouldn’t even try to hide it, call my LLC “Carl’s Always-On Juche Laptops” and cover the building in DPRK flags and propaganda posters.
Jamba Juche
I’ve got a “big problem”: People keep doing jobs I employ them to do for wages so cut-rate that even native Americans won’t take them.
Somebody stop their evil plot to… work underpaid jobs???
So does this just not pop up on the NSA panopticon or are they just pretending it isn’t
I assume they tunnel their traffic first to a third party country without complete NSA coverage then to the US, so logs would see 3rd country to US connections rather than DPRK to US ones
Either the DPRK has a really dedicated network of laptop spies that go otherwise unnoticed by the panopticon somehow and spend all their time as cross-continental drifters or there’s like 20 VPN tunnels of employees all working for tech companies that ends up in the greater sheboygan area as defined by what one person could reasonably do in a week and neither of those feel realistic honestly
The trick about the panopticon is it’s not actually good at seeing everything all the time. It’s the threat of it that matters to discipline the population. In the case of the NSA/PRISM/14-eyes they have so much data much of it isn’t useful in a real time sense at present. They can go back and trace things back and find connections and nail people to the wall with investigations but at present they don’t have automated systems that quickly identify and find every instance of something like this. Unfortunately they’re working on that with AI and I fear within 5-10 years they could be there but at present it’s mostly just data that gets siloed then looked over as needed within the context of specific investigations into specific known persons and their networks of contacts and relations.
but at present they don’t have automated systems that quickly identify and find every instance of something like this.
My point is mostly they don’t have to do the impossible and single out one guy who routes his laptop via third country to the DRPK, my point is that you either find the guy going on cannonball runs all his life or alternatively the aforementioned sheboygan hotspot of remote worker connections to tech companies all coming from hostile countries
The NSA panopticon is extremely inefficient and bad at its official job. It’s really good at mass collecting data of private citizens to be abused for general political reasons and it’s useful for targeted hacking in state warfare/espionage, it’s very bad at actually finding or preventing ‘real’ crimes of basically any kind.
Makes me want a DPRK dress uniform to make spreadsheets in lol
