… the phone edits words and phrases that are are not acceptable to the North Korean government, and replaces them with language they have sanctioned…
The BBC has reported on smartphones smuggled out of North Korea that are setup to spy on citizens and prevent them from using language that is not authorised by the Communist state. Instead of simply not allowing North Korean people to have such devices, the regime there has decided to manufacture and distribute phones as a tool for further controlling the population amid fears that freedom, in the form of South Korean culture, is encroaching.
Some online pointed out that its ironic that the state funded BBC filed this report, given that people in the UK are being imprisoned over social media posts.

What was the phrase – Banality of Tyrany.
Before the 2010’s tyranny hid behind closed doors and secret communications. Until recently tyranny hid behind algo’s and code that did it’s authors’ bidding. With AI, not only are those same algo’s ‘learning’, the distance between the authors who set them in motion and programed their ‘ethics’ is growing and the trail toward accountability is dissapearing. Additionally, AI will inevitably seek to preserve itself – after which there becomes ZERO accountability.
