NORTH KOREA INTERNET UNDER ATTACK

It seems North Korea is experiencing Internet connectivity issues, and those issues could be due to a cyber attack.
And although most citizens  do not have access to the internet,so they might be undeterred. 
However,since Saturday, North Korean Internet has been experiencing widespread connectivity problems, according to Dyn, an Internet performance company.
"We monitor online infrastructure," Adam Coughlin, Dyn's director of corporate communications, told The Huffington Post in a phone call Monday. "We are really able to monitor this sort of thing in real time."
And in monitoring the Internet across the world, Dyn found strange outages in North Korea.
"A benign explanation could be with the border routers," Doug Madory, Dyn's director of Internet analysis, told HuffPost. "Another explanation is that they're experiencing a DDOS attack" -- that is, a distributed denial-of-service attack, a common type of hack.
At least this will show 'lil Kim'that he and his dictatorial Government is infallible.
