[community] Tor usage in North Korea as a foreigner

[Gabriel Sandor]

Hello,

I'd like to ask your opinion on whether it's a good idea or not to use the
TAILS operating system (which comes with Tor buit in) while on my trip as a
tourist to North Korea. The tour organizer says it's possible to access the
Internet in North Korea if you buy a SIM card which is sold only to
foreigners.

I intend to bring my own laptop and a USB stick from which i will boot the
TAILS OS. I absolutely do not intend to perform any activities deemed as
illegal or defamatory by the North Korean authorities. I just want to use
TAILS + Tor for extra anonymity while browsing the Internet.

Do you think it's risky and it would seem suspicious if my USB stick is
inspected and they find out TAILS on it? Do you know of any cases where
foreigners successfully accessed Tor from North Korea and would you
recommend its usage while in that country?

Regards,
Gabriel S.
