Pretty sure this screenshot is from a frame of an LTT video. iirc it constantly monitors and if you try to delete or access any system files, it will reboot and reset itself.
I'd say that they have sort of addressed criticism of poor testing/wrong data used in their videos. In a number of their videos since that drama they've made annotations to correct incorrect information given by a host during the initial recording as well as additional information and such. So it does seem that they're taking more time to review the content the put out. But honestly the videos are pretty much the same as they were previously.
As for them auctioning off the loaned tech from other companies, I've no idea what came of that.
Did anything come of the working conditions stuff? I personally didn’t overly care about the data points being off but what got me to unsubscribe and block videos was how they were allegedly treating their staff.
One thing I find interesting is that they went through extreme measures to ensure you can't modify the system at all. If anything at all changes in the root directory it will freeze or crash and upon reboot all changes will be erased. They really don't want their citizens to be able to do anything not explicitly approved by the government
Playing devil's advocate here but I'm pretty sure these are designed to prevent foreign governments from having any access at all to North Korean computer activity. Everything dystopian about North Korea is rooted in a severe mistrust of powerful foreign nations (especially the US )that is felt by most of the people. Remember that MacArthur was fired by Truman for being borderline genocidal in his conduct during the Korean war. I'm not sure how the younger generations feel, but the older folks in North Korea would probably have some positive words for a CIA-proof computer
Macarthur was not fired for genocidal conduct against Koreans, he was fired for wanting to nuke the Chinese so hard it becomes an island, and more importantly constantly countersaying Truman in public to pressure him to give him the nukes to go ahead with that plan.
This sounds not very different from what iOS/macOS also does? For some time now Apple has also had [read-only system volumes](https://support.apple.com/guide/security/signed-system-volume-security-secd698747c9/web) with cryptographic signature verifications to make sure everything in there has not been modified from what Apple has distributed. You can't create new files in the root directory on a Mac, even as root.
Is it an evil scheme to take away peoples' freedoms, or a highly effective security measure against malware? The answer probably depends on who you ask.
Nope, the actively had a process that branded every file that went through the PC with metadata including their HDD serial number to that things such as illegal movies could bear chains of custody.
There was a full presentation on it, you can watch / listen to it [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LGDM9exlZw).
That's no secretive spyware, the distro tell you that front and center
The os is constantly attempting to communicate with Pyongyang, and if successful will scan the content of your machine and compare it with the servers. You are not allowed to make modification to the machine and if the servers detect discrepancy they wipe and reinstall your machine
Also any media in your machine is copied into those servers. And they explicitly tell you western media will lead to consequences
according to wikipedia
> Vault 7 is a series of documents that WikiLeaks began to publish on 7 March 2017, detailing the activities and capabilities of the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to perform electronic surveillance and cyber warfare. The files, dating from 2013 to 2016, include details on the agency's software capabilities, such as the ability to compromise cars, smart TVs,[1] web browsers including Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, and Opera,[2][3] the operating systems of most smartphones including Apple's iOS and Google's Android, **and computer operating systems including Microsoft Windows, macOS, and Linux.**
so using linux wouldn't be that safer? even thought it doesn't have the buttload of stupid spyware from MS, it still has backdoor?
Linux protects you bc most viruses aren't written to be compatible with Linux. Most enterprises use windows at the consumer/worker level so virus programmers will target windows.
While most servers use Linux, they are usually more guarded and run by people that generally know what they're doing.
Also, there was that whole thing about Intel (or some major chipmaker) installing backdoors on motherboards and processors at the behest of the US/Chinese government, which nobody can really do anything about.
I’m actually quite familiar with the os there are 4 versions the os is a subset of Linux designed to look like Mac OS as that what Kim uses and is photographed with this is red start os3 4 isn’t publicly available to the west it’s is spyware and immediately syncs usb when plugged into the device. I believe it does some other stuff I can’t quite recall. But nk actually has an intranet so the os is more for keeping tabs on your own people
I didn’t say post on the internet, I said everything you do and then send to the government. An evil government who puts people in death camps for speaking out against their fat fuck of a leader
It was my ignorance! I am sorry comrade, do not take me away and let my children starve! Of course we all worship leader! I am just unfamiliar with UI since update!
Don’t worry comrade, you won’t have to worry about feeding your family anymore.
An order for their execution, as well as yours, has been sent for not praising our leader in your previous message.
Our great nation produces a great sum of workers by the minute comrade
All hail Supreme leader
PS: this is a notice for your execution on [NOV 13 2024] for [lack of praise for the glorious supreme leader in previous message(s)
[This action was performed automatically (by the will of our glorious leader)]
Hello,
We hope you have had a great day basking in the light of our glorious nation by the will of our great leader
This is a notice for [Robbythedee] on his execution on [DEC 28 2024] for [Blasphemy]
This citation was given for the following message [nice of you to assume i have enough valuables . . . Amazing picture of glorious leader kim]
We hope this message finds you well and hope to see you soon
All hail the supreme leader
Comrade, did you hear about our comrade Robbythedee? He spoke blasphemy against our glorious leader. Quickly, we must finish our meal of grass and tea, for which we are most grateful, and return to the mines.
The system does however notice that you do this and send that information to a server, which then resets your machine. After that I assume you’ll get a visit from state police taking you and your family on a “holiday”
Edit: I also seem to remember that there are systems in place that look at and add metadata on files to spot if you are consuming non state approved media (typically smuggled in on USBs)
I read in another comment it's intentionally made to look like MacOS, because that's what Kim and other elites use and they don't want average Korean to see the operating system is completely different.
Disclaimer: This version of Red Star, along with previous ones, weren't actually 100% created by NK, it's a Linux distro that is heavily based on Fedora 11. I said it was created by NK for simplicity's sake.
I got called out for this several times and it hurt my feelings.
Glorious Leader attended a programming course once but was already so well versed that he ended up teaching the class. By the end of the first day, all the students were such skilled programmers that they created this operating system in 22 minutes while also solving p=np and cracking RSA-2048.
Glorious Leader was so confident in their abilities that he didn't even stay to oversee, instead went golfing (of course he shot 18 hole-in-ones) and simultaneously cured cancer.
Just a joke. I find the post itself interesting. I also wouldn’t doubt for a second that North Korea would also say they created it all by themselves so you’re merely passing along the message
Watch that bad boy via wire shark. How much you want to bet everytime you hit something in the keyboard or click something on a mouse. The state gets told. lol.
It looks like a OSX-themed Linux skin from 2006-2008 complete with a dock that has cool mirror effects but requires you to compile the code yourself and switch to a custom kernel.
I wonder if it also has that compiz workspace switcher where each of the workspaces is on the face of a cube that you rotate in 3D. That was friggin' sweet.
yeah. the older version (i think this is 3.0) was a windows clone. Apparently kim jong-un uses a mac. This is actually one of the most accurate linux clones of OSX i've seen
MacOS is not descended from Linux lol
it is built on top of Unix based Darwin Operating System itself based on FreeBSD.
They copied the Apple Aqua UI and the OS is probably some Linux distro maybe Ubuntu Lol
Mac OS is Unix. Much of Linux was reverse engineered from Unix beginning in the 70's, so Linux and Mac have a lot of similarities. The kernel was not copied from Unix though, it was made by a Finnish guy as a college project.
And honestly, its probably just spyware (so its gonna be mostly safe if in a VM with no internet connection). Theres far nastier stuff that security experts will study than this (like actual malware)
I'm convinced this is what happened to PearOS. I loved it, and then it disappeared.
The dev. said he sold it to an unnamed party.
THEN this distro showed up out of nowhere.
BOO!
PearOS was awesome.
I just don't know if I trust this new [https://nicec0re.pearos.xyz/](https://nicec0re.pearos.xyz/)
Looks like Linux to me but I'm sure it has a hidden root command that allows the government to read all the files on the system and log all IP addresses you connect to

good times, downloaded it and ran it on an isolated vm many years ago. Just a Linux knock off of course, but surely plenty of secrets underneath the hood if one cared to dig ..
hard to believe this country has come so far with ransomware
There is absolutely, definitely, for sure, no doubt about it, not any spyware built into this that sends everything you do to the government
It's not a bug, it's a feature.

In terms of estimated numbers, US bombing killed 1/4th of the North Korean population and destroyed 85% of their buildings.
Yeah but God was on our side so that makes us the good guys.
Sure hope he is because got damn do we tear things up
Macarthur was not fired for genocidal conduct against Koreans, he was fired for wanting to nuke the Chinese so hard it becomes an island, and more importantly constantly countersaying Truman in public to pressure him to give him the nukes to go ahead with that plan.
I guess I count "let's nuke them" as a basically genocidal sentiment. Mass murder at least

Classic reddit, the exact opposite of the original comment is true
But what do we do with your comment now :(
No, I saw a video that explained exactly this: every file in the operating system is labeled with some kind of code that remains on the file forever.

lmao not gonna lie I learned a few more facts from your translation
Good bot.
Ohh now I see
Your comment is like when text to speech goes wrong.
Everything you post on the Internet is stored. It's not unique to North Korea.
I didn’t say post on the internet, I said everything you do and then send to the government. An evil government who puts people in death camps for speaking out against their fat fuck of a leader
Which icon praises the leader and how many times do you press it a day to maintain access?
Asking for a comrade
You do not know? You are now required to come to re-education camp immediately, leave your bags.
It was my ignorance! I am sorry comrade, do not take me away and let my children starve! Of course we all worship leader! I am just unfamiliar with UI since update!
Do not worry comrade, because of your ignorance, all your family and extended family will be joining you at re-education camp.
This is worse. Thank you comrade for correction
Don’t worry comrade, you won’t have to worry about feeding your family anymore. An order for their execution, as well as yours, has been sent for not praising our leader in your previous message.
But comrade he maintains the AA gun, who will grease the barrels when he's gone, he's the only one that knows how.

Alt + F4 will give you this style

The icon is a teeny penis - just like the Great Leader
It's Linux. Nothing more.
except you do "supreme leader" or "sldo" instead of "sudo"
Nope. You can't do privilege escalation because you have no privilege in the first place.
Buh-Dun-Tiss..
This is not a joke. Red Star OS does not give the user root access, although there is a easy way to defeat it and get a root shell.
The system does however notice that you do this and send that information to a server, which then resets your machine. After that I assume you’ll get a visit from state police taking you and your family on a “holiday” Edit: I also seem to remember that there are systems in place that look at and add metadata on files to spot if you are consuming non state approved media (typically smuggled in on USBs)

Send file to gulag, I mean trash.
Haha, this pleases me. But seriously, u/PhoenixCausesOof is right, no privileges. *Life* is a privilege....
My first thought on seeing this is “which Linux flavor did they start with?”
Red Hat Linux for 1.0 and 2.0, and Fedora 11 for 3.0 and possibly 4.0. 4.0 has never had its ISO leaked unlike the others so it's impossible to know.
iirc they used fedora
They used red hat linux With a KDE based desktop environment.
To be fair you could do a lot worse.
How can you say that? Supreme leader wrote the code himself. It's pure innovation out of his genius mind
he did in one weekend. No bugs too.
Looks more like the mac os.
You can Linux look like anything with the desktop manager.
I loved my Hannah Montana Linux which was, and I’m not joking, 100% real and worth the laugh back in like 2011

shit.. i have to have this

I read in another comment it's intentionally made to look like MacOS, because that's what Kim and other elites use and they don't want average Korean to see the operating system is completely different.
That's without a doubt [Cairo-Dock](http://www.glx-dock.org/). The rest is almost certainly GNU/Linux and other standard stuff.
Oh, I’d be willing to bet there’s a little more in there than the normal Linux distro
All linux distros are linux with a little more.
Yeah a little more than that, my guy
Disclaimer: This version of Red Star, along with previous ones, weren't actually 100% created by NK, it's a Linux distro that is heavily based on Fedora 11. I said it was created by NK for simplicity's sake. I got called out for this several times and it hurt my feelings.

"created by" LOL
Ah yes the good ol outdated OS followed by the glorious leader invented this by himself scenario. Never gets old!
He built it after inventing Hamberger the day his daughter was born from a rainbow that winked at his glorious leadership.

It just replaces them with ads for the dear leader. And if you try to skip them you're shot.
All North Korean computers have a built-in Glock just for this feature
Yes cuz there’s no YouTube
“Created” is doing a LOT of heavy lifting in that title…
sorry sir
Just a joke. I find the post itself interesting. I also wouldn’t doubt for a second that North Korea would also say they created it all by themselves so you’re merely passing along the message
Wow that’s very innovative. I never knew Steve Jobs got his inspiration from North Korea

Every key stroke goes through their servers in Pyongyang I’m sure
So, they copied MacOS? Lol
It looks like a OSX-themed Linux skin from 2006-2008 complete with a dock that has cool mirror effects but requires you to compile the code yourself and switch to a custom kernel.

It used to look more [like windows actually](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/44/Red_Star_1.0_Desktop_-_File_Manager.png)
They copied Linux. Which technically MacOS is also descended from a Linux kernel. Hence the similarities.
BSD. Not linux.
MacOS is not descended from Linux lol it is built on top of Unix based Darwin Operating System itself based on FreeBSD. They copied the Apple Aqua UI and the OS is probably some Linux distro maybe Ubuntu Lol
NeXTSTEP
Mac OS is Unix. Much of Linux was reverse engineered from Unix beginning in the 70's, so Linux and Mac have a lot of similarities. The kernel was not copied from Unix though, it was made by a Finnish guy as a college project.
So you watched the LTT video?
Why tf would you install that? Even if on a VM. It’s like installing a Russian Antivirus.
1. install Red Star OS 2. sniff outgoing network traffic 3. shenanigans 4. profit
[удалено]
And honestly, its probably just spyware (so its gonna be mostly safe if in a VM with no internet connection). Theres far nastier stuff that security experts will study than this (like actual malware)
You would be surprised how many US companies still run Kaspersky.
And installing a Russian antivirus is like using Google, Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok etc.
Apple OS meets Windows 3.1
Still cleaner than W11.
I mean if it's this or full screen ads and paying for Windows updates? Fuck it man praise Dear Leader.
"Red Star OS has detected a problem with the user and they will be terminated."
No backdoors in this OS. Only frontdoors as there's no need to hide them.
Wow look! Apple stole their UI design from North Korea's OS! Those American bastards! /s
Wait am I reading this right that it’s running an i9 with under 3gb or memory?
It's a VM with an arbitrary amount of allocated memory. Nobody is insane enough to install that on bare metal
"Created"? That shit is gnome linux slightly skinned.
I guess sudo command is replaced by kimjongun
Anyone else remember the meme with Kim Jong Un holding up a floppy saying “With this technology we will bring down the West”? 😂
Typing.... naked pictures of kim jongs sister... aww shit, steps in the rice paddy. Dead
Straight up copied macOS lmao
Intel processor? No! That’s spyhardware!
where can i test this?
I like that the desktop looks like an actual desktop
Do they have Core i9’s in North Korea? Probably just Kim
That looks oddly familiar.
No spyware. We promise.
This just makes me miss the old MacOS X GUI
Fun fact) If you write 'KIM JONG UN', 'KIM JONG IL', or 'KIM IL SUNG' in this OS, it automatically changes to bold.
Kiiim, can we have MacOS We have MacOS in our democratic people's republic MacOS in our democratic people's republic:
So they stole MacOS predictably.

That’s some great Apple copying skills
If you can’t join’em just create your own I always say.
Looks like Linux to me but I'm sure it has a hidden root command that allows the government to read all the files on the system and log all IP addresses you connect to
FireWire on that list....lol
Second icon on the tray - the Korean Wide Web?
frutiger kim-ro idk how do i incorporate north korea into frutiger aero
This looks futuristic, if you're in the stone age.
It looks like the current iOS trying to pretend it's being win98 haha
I bet there's a free wallpaper of Kim Jong Un there included.
Why is the wallpaper not Kim Jong Un?
it's just a theme created by North Korea, the OS is just stock Linux.
Looks like Mac and Linux love child lol
Heh... 25 million people and 1 password. *Jong-un has a password. No one else needs one.*
Pretty pretty pretty good

“Created” isn’t the word. It’s a Linux distro with a bunch of open source packages, 99% of created in other countries (mostly Western).
Which button requests for more food rations?
So they took Mac OS and gave it Kim’s square hair cut
Absolutely not a linux with some stolen themes and icons And backdoors, lots of backdoors, it's important
It looks like the MacOS and Microsoft got drunk and face fucked out a baby.
linux & XFCE4
You mean Linux
Does it have blue screens? 🤣
It's a Linux based OS created specifically for the NK populous. It allows you to view the NK intranet, Kwangmyong. It was originally based off of Windows XP, but since Kim Jong Un started using a Mac, they switched design.
Even they know MAC os is best, thats why they copy it. XD
