North Korea has only 7.200 Internet users, according to a new survey on global internet use.
In a report that published by We are Social, the government of the country only allows 0,03 percent of its population to access Internet. As a direct comparison, in Iceland 98 per cent of its population uses the Internet.
But that does not mean that North Korean citizens are not "online". The state has made its own interior internet, called Kwangmyong, which literally translates as "bright".
This version of the Web is not connected to the wider internet, meaning that any content from the outside world is first vetted by government officials and then uploaded.
If you're lucky enough to have access, your computer will use one operating system που called Red Star, which looks much like older versions of OSX but is only used in North Korea.
A machine search called “Our Country” helps users navigate around the estimated 5.500 websites, which consist mainly of universities, government offices, libraries and state-owned enterprises.
But they also have their own version of Facebook – although they are only allowed to post messages birthday.
