North Korea's Internet Access

Martyn Wjilliams explains how North Korea is connected to the Internet . I was amazed that the nation only received Internet access four years ago:

A connection from China Unicom into the country first appeared in late 2010. Until then, North Korea had no full-time connection to the Internet—just an email service that relayed messages every hour or so. (para. 4)
Now Korea also has Internet access through a Russian telecommunications satellite.
