It sounds more like they're just using this as an excuse to justify their keystroke speed monitoring software, and using "He was a NORF KOREAN SPY!" as an excuse for when they fire employees for failing to meet their WPM typing quota.
I've heard of a few places in the news that have had secret DPRK employees, and the whole spy angle doesn't really make sense when you realize they basically never do any actual spying, they just do the work that's required of them and send the money back through various remittance services usually through China or SEA countries.
The tipoff for a lot of these places is either a lot of weird changes to their direct deposit info in a short period of time (indicating laundering through different banks/remittance services), or having odd behaviour during video calls/interviews; sometimes they'll hire someone in the usa to be their face, and one case I've read about apparently used an AI generated voice and filter.
How do i get this job
Own 50 Lenovo laptops and advertise and hope a Chinese shell company takes notice.
