Not the best sources, a phone smuggled by a South Korean-based organization that is funded by the US National Endowment for Democracy and reported by state owned BBC, both of which are enemies of NK, and nothing in this article is verifiable. I’m not saying this to promote anything about NK but just from a journalistic perspective this article doesn’t prove much.
Has everyone forgotten about the NSA and their absurdly massive data centers? At least a portion of the US population likely has substantial data from their tech in a database we can’t access.
How do you expect him to take a bite out of crime? I think he was just true to his word, police aren’t stopping the real criminals so he just got more serious.

But also I semi-frequently have times where I think “that car could have killed me” and I continue my commute unfazed. It encourages an entirely different mindstate than car-brain.
I walked through a park just a bit ago and there was a juggling group performing. There’s also a person in my city that hula hoops continuously while dancing all over downtown, often on rollerskates. It’s all a delight to see in our typical modern hell scape, even if they weren’t good at it, I enjoy people having fun.
It’s difficult to comprehend just how much more wealthy a billionaire is. If you spent $10 every ten minutes, it would take you about 70 days to go through $1 million. To reach a billion would take 190 years.
