SEOUL, South Korea (Jun 15, 1996 00:41 a.m. EDT) -- For a Canadian university student, creating an Internet site on North Korea was simply opening a small library on the reclusive nation. For South Korean authorities, it was threat to national security.
Last week, South Korea declared David Burgess' World Wide Web site subversive and ordered 14 local computer networks with Internet links to block public access to it.
The government also said it would punish anyone accessing North Korean web sites, taking its ideological war with its Marxist enemy into cyberspace.
I saw this, too. The online AP report had the URL for the site at the bottom (http://duke.usask.ca/~burgess/DPRK.html). The site is no longer there. I suspect that a University president or provost or computer services manager had it removed. I suspect that he or she is going to be VERY embarassed real soon now. -- Alan Bostick | The Necronomicon was not written by the Mad Arab, mailto:abostick@netcom.com | it was written by Scott Adams news:alt.grelb | Alan Olsen <alano@teleport.com> http://www.alumni.caltech.edu/~abostick
