would still get restricted because they’re contentious. Like if you start talking about how you believe in equal rights, that’s something most people agree with (at least in principle,) and it shouldn’t be political. But it’s going to ruffle some feathers anyways (especially if you get any more specific than that,) so it’d be restricted.

If this is the best example you can come up with, it is fairly unconvincing that any mainstream political will be restricted.

Nikkei average stock price hit 39,098 yen per share, a high that hasn't been seen in 34 years

Hokkaido resident interviews below regarding the phenomena

When the stock prices go up abnormally, there are repercussions so I'm cautious

Hourly wage nor salaries will rise up and we cannot go on living like this. Only (stock) prices that are unrelated to daily living are rising.

No one feels that the economy's doing well. The rich gets richer while the poor stays poor.

Essentially the goal is this: to use a giant electromagnetic launch track to accelerate a hypersonic aircraft to Mach 1.6. The aircraft would then separate from the track, ignite its engine and enter near space at seven times the speed of sound.

Does no one read the article anymore before commenting? I'm not responding to all the comments here since it's clearly a waste of my time, but every single one of the concerns that people mention in this thread so far has been acknowledged in the article already.

Market analysts said that there is no relief as of yet from this difficult period. They urged the government to play a role as a mediator, so companies can map out more specific investment plans by clearing away any lingering uncertainties.

“The government is advised to stand at the forefront in discussing subsidy-related issues with its U.S. counterparts, so local chipmakers and battery firms' uncertainties can be alleviated,

For the last couple of years, a few North Korean vloggers – Song-Ah, YuMi, and Un-A – launched their YouTube channels. These three vloggers gave a glimpse of their everyday lives, from what they eat to their hobbies to their travels. They also have videos that showcase the infrastructures in North Korea, such as the Hwaseong Apartment Complex, Pyongyang Metro, and Kim Il Sung Square.

In June 2023, however, YouTube announced that it had banned these YouTube channels “to comply with US sanctions and trade compliance laws, including those related to North Korea.” The videos disappeared for a while but many of these have been reuploaded by other YouTube users.

It doesn't feel fair to label North Korea "secretive" when the rest of the world bans them from even using Youtube and even hides their videos.
