This report examines the state of internet freedom and digital access within North Korea. As its title "Digital Hostages" implies, the research seeks to shed light on how North Korean citizens are effectively held hostage to the strict controls their government maintains over online activities. North Korea has intentionally built an isolated national intranet known as "Kwangmyong" while severely restricting access to the external internet. Only a small percentage of the population has official approval to use the limited domestic online services available. For most North Koreans, there is no digital connectivity at all in their daily lives. Those who attempt to access outside information through black markets or circumvent official controls face severe punishments if caught. Merely possessing foreign media like USB drives can be grounds for imprisonment in labor camps. As a result, North Koreans have extremely limited options for freely expressing themselves or accessing a diversity of viewpoints online. This report analyzes the human rights implications of North Korea's approach to online governance. It also considers some tactics individuals use to gain access despite restrictions. However, the overarching system of strict digital control and surveillance remains firmly in place as a tool for maintaining the regime's authoritarian power over its citizens.
