A security researcher found an Amazon-hosted cloud server not properly secured and tied to North Korean IP addresses. He started poking around inside it, and found gobs of animation cells and sequences for new shows airing on Amazon Prime and HBO Max!
American sanctions against Little Kim's regime include businesses based in the USA not allowed to do business with any companies in NK. Most likely a number of shell companies are obfuscating the true origin of the workers and the production companies are unaware of where their animators are.
Makes you wonder what certifications will be put in place to try to prevent such subterfuge in the future.
