It's read i Radio very much and Erick are you talking about everything from politics to social issues and news of the day whether you're up late or just starting your day Welcome to the show from ball pilot flying j. Studios This is Red Eye radio. All across America 806 in the world 80690 right I He is Eric Ali and I'm going back to her because you can pop past us you cannot North Korea but. You can i was reading while you were in yes you Washington Examiner If you had to sneak that story right now no it could not because I want to you told me in our pre-show meeting and I just didn't think about it again but it isn't really an interest interesting story and and to theorize what's really going on right in North Korea North Korea what life is like but here's the now here's the Twitter post on Washington examiners website that leads that has of course a link to the story but the post reads. North Korea is an enigma at many levels the hermit kingdom is famous for being a land without internet but it's also a place where cyber activism on behalf of freedom is being pioneered the answer to that next month the flash drive and it has just you know like a generic photo of just a handful of flash drives here but I said to you well wait a minute I mean given Kim Jong un and what he's willing to do to well members of his own family. If it is true I mean if you're talking about essentially the it's not necessarily propaganda but you're acting against the government here at you're acting against a dictator here. Which would mean that you're willing to risk your life for freedom we have seen that before well are they talking about I remember when. When I was in. High school and one of my professors that I had. In high school Dr Dr not a professor but a teacher but Dr Charles seem are like where he always used to go whenever and by the way I mention him one name and one time and somebody had him for a teacher who was listening to the show right I couldn't believe it you had him and they said it was right on you know with him the way that he was but he was near retirement age when I had him but the coolest guy ever short little guy who just was the coolest teach you could possibly ever have who had on the perfect suit every single you would think he'd be the kind of a teacher that you would mock right because he was older and the perfect suit he was a coolest guy you never meet right and you knew would have soon as you met him and and but he used to go on educational. Tours of the former Soviet Union and they used to sneak in magazines to the other professors because I didn't have them right and I'm wondering is that what they're talking about on the hard drive that people share. The flash drives with each other that that come from from other places so they can read newspapers because if you don't have the your net or the Internet is watched then your news can come from exchanging flash drives right and it's as they you know right here in The Washington Examiner that it is about getting a glimpse into the outside world yes it's prohibited clearly but many of the citizens have devices with jump drive so they can use these. And these devices and I. I there was a CIA officer one time that told me told me. About North Korea and getting information from maybe someone in you know the. The Korean forces or North Korean forces. Somebody with any government information one of the things that they would respond to in terms of payment was pour in. I didn't ask questions beyond that. I mean I get it but I mean I don't know what in what form but I but the the point being. That Ok. I wondered how much of you know speaking of the CIA How much would be propaganda because it's it's not necessarily propaganda if you just fill a bunch of flash drives on with a bunch of like Reese recent Google stories right right about anything and everything number of things cultural entertainment I mean we know Kim Jong un is very active with the Internet he is. In fact they they believe I think they know now that the the the ransomware a lot of the ransomware is being driven and being controlled by North Korea have someone very close to me whose company was affected by that the f.b.i. Told them directly this we know we know for a fact this came from North Korea. So the it's not that they don't really I guess they're not aware of it obviously it being prohibited they just don't have access to the citizens. But then you start thinking of how I guess freedom starts with these well it starts with ideas. We talk about being founded on on the idea of freedom and liberty as a nation but that little spark that where people see well wait a minute this is the life that other people have they're certainly they're generally aware of it but when you start seeing details and examples maybe on the on on a story or whatever it might be whatever kind of data might be on this jump drive that somebody has that becomes significant because it starts this emotional response it starts again that passion and that person to say wait a minute we need to you know this shouldn't be this way this is wrong we are held as prisoners as citizens of North Korea and I just I look at it is as fascinating because back in the day propaganda would have been you know pamphlet books maybe videos later. By my CIA friend I don't know if it was v.h.s. Or d.v.d. As I again I didn't magazines I didn't ask. But a jump drive it's tiny it's conceivable Yes It's and it can contain a ton of data of information depending on the size of the jump drive and by just looking at it you don't know what's in it right yeah exactly. I I remember when my history teacher told me that in in 10th grade they used to bring over us news or report especially because you could roll up magazines so no news magazines were actually wanted more then than newspapers because they were easily easy to pack in for some reason he said he couldn't believe how many times he got over with how many magazines because Still it when even when he went to the Soviet Union on the education. You know exchanges whatever they were. They just because they were teachers or you know they were from education that the k.g.b. Would just you know they'd look in the magazines Ok 5 because they would look at them as more of education materials and they'd given directly to these other people that they wanted to know what was going on but then I told the story of my old young friend I say old young friend because I haven't seen her in in a long time but she was a sort of a restaurant what I thought I went to and this goes back to the remember the the protest in in Egypt. When when that happened was that 10 years ago yeah maybe 10 years ago and somebody told me that this young woman is from from from. You know from Iran. And and it was intercessor just you know sort of a conversation and we talked for really the next couple years and. I'll never forget sitting down with of the one time and I said well I got to ask you because her goal was to become a citizen the United States which she did become and she had her grandparents over here in the was a limited time though that she was allowed to come over and she had to make the decision and other relatives of hers did not make the same decision her sister did make the same decision her sister couldn't come over because it was a time period. In immigration law at that time I don't know what it would be now if you tried to if you tried to come over but so she came over by herself never had met her grandparents so no one but it still was allowed to come over and when I asked her I said Why do you come over she said because it's United States and I said well you didn't you when your friends didn't hate the United States just know we love the United States. I said so you can basically knew that I said if she just let me she said look the problem is my stupid government and my stupid religion or are our words her words are words yes are stupid are stupid government are stupid religion and I asked her what she wanted that time she was in her early twenty's should come over to 18 but she was probably here 2 or 3 years and and it was what she stated and I went because I'm thinking well what I want to do is get away from a totalitarian government and I wish to live in a democratic republic where the representatives she said. I want to be able to dance I want to listen to music that I want to listen to I want to be able to read what I want to read I want to be out able to go out and dance I want to be able to be in a swimming pool with boys and I went swimming pool with boys that seem strange Well there you're completely segregated right yeah Royce woman one pull girls from another because I was who cares about swimming right is that what you have to understand were segregated and I realize she wanted what any 20 year old wants sure which is basically stay out of my face as I've said is really what the Founding Fathers that's what they were about stay out of my face leave me alone. And but she knew and she said we all know she said we all know it's not the United States' fault it's that how do you know it was the Internet Isobel isn't part of a blog because we get around it so there was a death camp survivor according to the story in The Washington Examiner named June . He defected North Korea right now he's so he's at the factory goes to Canada he went to a university campus for help because it was his idea for these jump drives right and they started this collection on the campus and some of the boxes had posters or a picture of Kim Jong. And instead of his mouth it was a jump it was a u.s.b. Port right on the on the poster so the idea was obviously let's get this it can be great propaganda or they even they even. In this article they even write about think about. He's Germany West Germany Well you couldn't stop the broadcast t.v. From getting over no you couldn't write and so broadcast became a big part of it but here it's it's easily concealable so much data can be on there so they started this in fact there was a human rights activists activist for how worse. Who was a supporter of Joan Gong Il and his efforts and he he leads flash drives for freedom and so it's a campaign. That just basically asks people around the world to donate your u.s.b. Flash drive how did they get in and well that would be my question there they're smuggling them in and they say in fact they're human that Human Rights Foundation has funded individuals and groups in South Korea to smuggle in more than 100000 flash drives and computer memory cards that's the other part of it the memory cards. Into North Korea reaching 1300000 citizens I don't but logistically it doesn't really talk about that they're just they're getting a minute somehow they're getting it and there it is I put I put how I just put into Google how are flash drive smuggling in North Korea 1st and it comes up flash drives for freedom yeah. Aims aims to fill your spare us a drives with. Some subversive media and information and smuggled in right I remember going back to forget who I think it could have been Neil Degrasse Tyson or somebody else that said the most important thing we have as a universe. Keep in mind the source. Is information right I mean I remember scientists saying this well it's all about information it's all about information all the information not just what you can learn from I mean it's for them and they're much smarter than I am they can explain it more but I've always kept at the back of my mind everything information is paramount and of course as they say here one of the quotes here Knowledge is power Information is power of course we knew that we we are a nation founded on an idea. Liberty So when you when you think of that think about how powerful ideas can be but the but none is more powerful than the idea and all of the ideas surrounding freedom liberty for anyone it's what we all want a majority of North Koreans have access to devices that can read u.s.b. Drives Yeah which is interesting I don't know what kind of devices they would be but they have them so contents include ebooks films and an offline Korean Wycombe p.d.f. Right so you get your building this demand which cannot necessarily be supplied enough right you build that demand you built that that that longing for that whatever it is whatever you're getting that information and that changes hearts and minds obviously can't measure to what extent but imagine being able to go back and and. And the movies if there is to be free North Korea at some point in our lifetime I have my doubts about that but if that ever happens going back to the infancy and something like this an effort where you're just smuggling in this kind of data in this way. And that the story is flash drives are bringing freedom to North Korea a few gigabytes of the time into an exam Yeah. 86690 right I didn't judge with what I radioed toll free at age 66 might be right Audie.
