Considering Korea's stance on pornography, (and access to sound and logical information), I was wondering if the gov't or Korean Telecoms utilize ISP Blockers or use spyware to monitor internet traffic. Anyone know? I'd hate to be having a wank and get a knock at the door...

I've found they only block North Korean websites.
Re: porno, they have these 'adult' PC bangs everywhere, where they have some of the most degrading things you've ever seen.

Er... at least that what my friend told me.
'He' went once, and, not knowing Korean, clicked on a random movie.
'He' will never think of donkeys the same way again.
In any event, anything blocked and/or monitored is easily circumvented with encription and a proxy server.
Just type 'tor' into google, and you'll find a good one.
