so if any of y'all have ever purchased e-books from Amazon, then you should log in to your Amazon account, and under your Content Library, download all your e-books to your computer and transfer them to your kindle reader via USB, or send them directly to your preferred device (if you have more than one connected to your Amazon account) via wifi by clicking "Deliver or Remove from this device" and switching the device you want to send it to

Once you've downloaded all your purchased e-books, not ones that are borrowed from Kindle Unlimited or Prime Reading, download the free Calibre e-book management software and this DRM removal plugin to remove the DRM (digital rights management) from your e-books, which converts your kindle e-books into the universal e-book format EPUB or whatever other ebook format you'd like, bc the Kindle ebook format AZW and AZW3, can only be used on Kindle readers, but by removing the DRM, they can then be used on any device that reads the EPUB format

BUT why should you do all this? bc on Feb. 26, 2025 (one week from now as of the time I posted this) Amazon will no longer provide this download option bc they're aware that people have been downloading their e-books from their kindle libraries and using software like Calibre to convert those e-books into EPUBs and not have to be tied down to Amazon's ecosystem, which makes them lose money (boohoo), and also the switch towards cloud-based storage

Basically, any e-books you have purchased from Amazon are not yours to own, you're essentially being licensed the e-book, so they can use this loophole to alter or completely remove those e-books from the website at their whim, and you would no longer have access to those e-books, even though you legally purchased them, which is wild bc we should be able to legally own, forever, any digital media we buy and do what we want with it, and this is something that has been happening with other forms of digital media like movies and video games, where you "buy" a digital copy but you don't actually own it

You should also stop buying e-books from amazon from now on since you don't even own them, and cancel your Kindle Unlimited subscription if you have one, and you might as well download any audiobooks you've purchased on Audible (which is also owned by Amazon)

[watch this video and this video for more thorough explanations about this issue and this video for a tutorial on how to use Calibre and the DRM ]

Alternatives to kindle readers include: Kobo (has integration with Libby) and Nook (from Barnes & Noble), or sell or donate the one you have if you don't want to use it anymore

Alternatives to amazon e-books: Libby (free app that links to your local library if you have an active library card where you can borrow ebooks and other digital media), Internet Archive, Project Gutenburg, 🏴‍☠️ ebooks and PDFs, and research whether your favorite author has books available to purchase directly on their website

....and you can always purchase or borrow physical books and other media as well! support your local libraries and indie bookstores!

TL,DR: this is a matter of media ownership, censorship, and archiving, so download your Amazon e-books NOW before Amazon takes away your ability to access the items that you legally purchased and locks you down to using their devices and ecosystem

FEBRUARY 26 IS THE LAST DAY TO DOWNLOAD YOUR AMAZON EBOOKS

please please please please

more stuff based around piko just being a robot

i love robotic piko

on my hands and knees begging

ME TOO I WILL o7 i think i already said everything i had to say on my headcanons specifically abt him being a robot in other asks 😭 im looking tru my asks and notes rn hold on

OK SCRATCH THAT I HAVE NOT GIVEN YALL ANYTHING HELPME straps you to a chair youre gonna hear me YAP i have SO MANY thoughts abt him i cant belive i never shared them

i need to talk abt my world building a little, i mentioned it on a previous ask and a previous drawing but in the universe of this blog all vocal synths live together in a sort of paralel reality that co exists with our own, money is of no relevance to them and comercial banks sales in our world only correlate to how much their companies can provide for them, societal upkeep is mostly done trough synths deciding to take on jobs for no other reason than personal gratification. it is also common to share your resources with the larger synth community, miku for example is a MAJOR provider, if you need anything you can just ask her and she can get it from crypton for you

piko has famously Flopped so hes never been given much to work with by sony / kii/on, his interest in body modding was born mostly out of necessity as he was the one doing most of the upkeep for himself, being officially discontinued was a good thing for him as it gave him the greenlight to do whatever the fuck he wanted to and there was a major improvement in his software and hardware as he was able to just Fuck Around with it and change his appearence however he wanted (for example my personal piko design has more LEDs in his legs than boxart, big chunky metal circles in his joints that are purely cosmetical and can be removed whenever for comfort and his arms have been entirely replaced by sleek black ones) (out of universe all of these design decisions were taken solely because i wanted to draw him more robotic than boxart)

all of this self maintenance landed him with both an incredibly advanced body and os specially for such an old release with no proper updates and extensive software and hardware knowledge, he ended up as a pillar for the androids in the vocal synth community, if youre a robot and you need something that your creators cant/wont give you you Go to Piko. he specially helps out defoko and momo with discontinued utaus, they can mostly take care of it by themselves with other utaus' help but he is definetly on their speed dial list

another major point for pikos android body was meeting fukase, they knew of each others existence but only properly met on some random online forum about engineering and robotics and computer stuff started talking from a shared interest in computer nerd shit until one thing led to another and now they live together, fukase is huge into the hardware side of things a lot of pikos maintenance nowadays is done by him and hes become a part of the speed dial list alongside his bf, they also have silly little robotics projects together like making a functional replica of metal sonic. having yourself be opened up and your insides messed with by someone you trust has got to be like top 3 most intimate experiences ever its fun :3

another thing i couldnt find anywhere else to fit is that pikos tail is and has always been detachable, it looks similar to this, thats a guitar cable with a usb end

it attaches to his body the same way you plug a guitar into an amplifier and can genuenly be used for data transfer :3 afaik that makes no sense in real life and these cables are really kinda ass but were also talking about a gay sentient robot from a parallel dimension so i dont care

i thought about having the same jack from the yamaha rgxa2 but that one sticks out and it would function weird as a tail attachment so he has something more similar to these angled ones :3 in my experience these are also just easier to use because i usually play my guitar sitting down on my bed or couch 😭

the jack is somewhere on his lower back just below the waist, i think on boxart the cable sticks out trough a hole in his clothes but I dont like that so i just have it go trough under them instead

Players from the USA are annoyed to the new part of The Witcher for being Woke and DEI… You are talking about a Polish studio from games, because the fucking CD Project Red is the fuck from Poland

Ciri literally looks like a typical Slavic woman from that time

"CD Projekt SA (until July 25, 2011 Optimus SA) - Polish joint -stock company dealing in the production and distribution of computer games through its subsidiaries. The dominant entity of the CD Projekt capital group.

The company existed under its original name in 1988–2011. In the 90s She was one of the largest manufacturers of PCs in Poland, then expanded its activity to the production of cash registers, providing integrated IT solutions for offices and large enterprises, and created one of the leading Polish online portals onet.pl. After the division and subsequent transformations of the capital structure, Optimus took over CDP Investment and focused almost exclusively on the production, location and distribution of computer games [3] [4] [5].

In 2020, CD Projekt was placed first in the ranking of the 100 largest Polish private companies [6]"

"The company was founded in 1988 as a private company Romana Kluski. From 1994 Optimus was listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange. The company was the largest manufacturer of computers in Poland. In 1996, it began publishing, under which the "Education and Entertainment" group was created,, focusing Optiums Bis (distributor of Ubisoft games, Activision, Axall, Condor, Merit, MindScape, SSI, ID Software, SCI and Warner), Optimus Nexus (producer of games and multimedia) and Optimus Pascal (producer of spolkin) and Optimus himself was a representative of Disney Interactive. [10] [11]. On October 13, 1999, the company expanded the offer of products with game consoles, becoming one of the two official Nintendo distributors in Poland [12]. In the years 2000–2002, the company's legal transformations took place, as a result of which it was finally divided into two separate business entities - Optimus and the Onet Group. On August 28, 2006, the Securities and Stock Exchange Commission decided to withdraw the company from the WSE. The reason was improper performance of information duties by the Company. However, the decision did not enter into force and Optimus remained on the stock exchange.

At the beginning of 2006, the headquarters of Optimus was moved from Nowy Sącz to Warsaw, And the installation of computers on the principle of outsourcing to the ABC Data plant. In the same year, the company also filed a claim for compensation in the amount of PLN 35 million for unlawful decisions of tax authorities of 2002, which, according to Optimus, led to the loss of reputation by the company, losses PLN 27 million and direct costs of tax proceedings in the amount of PLN 8 million [1].

On October 31, 2007, members of the management of Optimus, Piotr Lewandowski and Michał Lorenc, were detained by CBŚ regarding the controversial increase in capital in the company. On April 16, 2008, Lewandowski was again detained by the CBA on charges of removing money from the company [13].

On January 22, 2008, the Company submitted a bankruptcy application to the court with the possibility of concluding an agreement, but it was withdrawn after the public broadcast of the shares, of which some of the revenues (13, PLN 5 million) was allocated to cover the obligations. Another bankruptcy application was submitted by the company West, but the courts of both instances dismissed him [14].

Optimus is the creator of the largest Polish internet portal - Onet.pl. After the sale of shares in the company by its founder Roman Kluska, the website was transferred to the Onet daughter company, which was then taken over by the ITI group, and in 2012 it hit the hands of the Axel Springer Polska Group. The name Onet.pl comes from the word Optimusnet"

Suddenly Poland became too progressive for fucking Americans?

In February of last year, Donggang Jinhui Foodstuff, a seafood-processing company in Dandong, China, threw a party. It had been a successful year: a new plant had opened, and the company had doubled the amount of squid that it exported to the United States. The party, according to videos posted on Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok, featured singers, instrumentalists, dancers, fireworks, and strobe lights. One aspect of the company’s success seems to have been its use of North Korean workers, who are sent by their government to work in Chinese factories, in conditions of captivity, to earn money for the state. A seafood trader who does business with Jinhui recently estimated that it employed between fifty and seventy North Koreans. Videos posted by a company representative show machines labelled in Korean, and workers with North Korean accents explaining how to clean squid. At the party, the company played songs that are popular in Pyongyang, including “People Bring Glory to Our Party” (written by North Korea’s 1989 poet laureate) and “We Will Go to Mt. Paektu” (a reference to the widely mythologized birthplace of Kim Jong Il). Performers wore North Korean colors, and the country’s flag billowed behind them; in the audience, dozens of workers held miniature flags.

Drone footage played at the event showed off Jinhui’s twenty-one-acre, fenced-in compound, which has processing and cold-storage facilities and what appears to be a seven-floor dormitory for workers. The company touted a wide array of Western certifications from organizations that claim to check workplaces for labor violations, including the use of North Korean workers. When videos of the party were posted online, a commenter—presumably befuddled, because using these workers violates U.N. sanctions—asked, “Aren’t you prohibited from filming this?”

Like Jinhui, many companies in China rely on a vast program of forced labor from North Korea. (Jinhui did not respond to requests for comment.) The program is run by various entities in the North Korean government, including a secretive agency called Room 39, which oversees activities such as money laundering and cyberattacks, and which funds the country’s nuclear- and ballistic-missile programs. (The agency is so named, according to some defectors, because it is based in the ninth room on the third floor of the Korean Workers’ Party headquarters.) Such labor transfers are not new. In 2012, North Korea sent some forty thousand workers to China. A portion of their salaries was taken by the state, providing a vital source of foreign currency for Party officials: at the time, a Seoul-based think tank estimated that the country made as much as $2.3 billion a year through the program. Since then, North Koreans have been sent to Russia, Poland, Qatar, Uruguay, and Mali.

In 2017, after North Korea tested a series of nuclear and ballistic weapons, the United Nations imposed sanctions that prohibit foreign companies from using North Korean workers. The U.S. passed a law that established a “rebuttable presumption” categorizing work by North Koreans as forced labor unless proven otherwise, and levying fines on companies that import goods tied to these workers. China is supposed to enforce the sanctions in a similar manner. Nevertheless, according to State Department estimates, there are currently as many as a hundred thousand North Koreans working in the country. Many work at construction companies, textile factories, and software firms. Some also process seafood. In 2022, according to Chinese officials running pandemic quarantines, there were some eighty thousand North Koreans just in Dandong, a hub of the seafood industry.

Last year, I set out with a team of researchers to document this phenomenon. We reviewed leaked government documents, promotional materials, satellite imagery, online forums, and local news reports. We watched hundreds of cell-phone videos published on social-media sites. In some, the presence of North Koreans was explicit. Others were examined by experts to detect North Korean accents, language usage, and other cultural markers. Reporting in China is tightly restricted for Western reporters. But we hired Chinese investigators to visit factories and record footage of production lines. I also secretly sent interview questions, through another group of investigators and their contacts, to two dozen North Koreans—twenty workers and four managers—who had recently spent time in Chinese factories. Their anonymous responses were transcribed and sent back to me.

The workers, all of whom are women, described conditions of confinement and violence at the plants. Workers are held in compounds, sometimes behind barbed wire, under the watch of security agents. Many work gruelling shifts and get at most one day off a month. Several described being beaten by the managers sent by North Korea to watch them. “It was like prison for me,” one woman said. “At first, I almost vomited at how bad it was, and, just when I got used to it, the supervisors would tell us to shut up, and curse if we talked.” Many described enduring sexual assault at the hands of their managers. “They would say I’m fuckable and then suddenly grab my body and grope my breasts and put their dirty mouth on mine and be disgusting,” a woman who did product transport at a plant in the city of Dalian said. Another, who worked at Jinhui, said, “The worst and saddest moment was when I was forced to have sexual relations when we were brought to a party with alcohol.” The workers described being kept at the factories against their will, and being threatened with severe punishment if they tried to escape. A woman who was at a factory called Dalian Haiqing Food for more than four years said, “It’s often emphasized that, if you are caught running away, you will be killed without a trace.”

In all, I identified fifteen seafood-processing plants that together seem to have used more than a thousand North Korean workers since 2017. China officially denies that North Korean laborers are in the country. But their presence is an open secret. “They are easy to distinguish,” a Dandong native wrote in a comment on Bilibili, a video-sharing site. “They all wear uniform clothes, have a leader, and follow orders.” Often, footage of the workers ends up online. In a video from a plant called Dandong Yuanyi Refined Seafoods, a dozen women perform a synchronized dance in front of a mural commemorating Youth Day, a North Korean holiday. The video features a North Korean flag emoji and the caption “Beautiful little women from North Korea in Donggang’s cold-storage facility.” (The company did not respond to requests for comment.) Remco Breuker, a North Korea specialist at Leiden University, in the Netherlands, told me, “Hundreds of thousands of North Korean workers have for decades slaved away in China and elsewhere, enriching their leader and his party while facing unconscionable abuse.”

In late 2023, an investigator hired by my team visited a Chinese plant called Donggang Xinxin Foodstuff. He found hundreds of North Korean women working under a red banner that read, in Korean, “Let’s carry out the resolution of the 8th Congress of the Workers’ Party.” (The company did not respond to requests for comment.) Soon afterward, the investigator visited a nearby plant called Donggang Haimeng Foodstuff, and found a North Korean manager sitting at a wooden desk with two miniature flags, one Chinese and one North Korean. The walls around the desk were mostly bare except for two portraits of the past North Korean leaders Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il. The manager took our investigator to the workers’ cafeteria to eat a North Korean cold-noodle dish called naengmyeon, and then gave him a tour of the processing floor. Several hundred North Korean women dressed in red uniforms, plastic aprons, and white rubber boots stood shoulder to shoulder at long metal tables under harsh lights, hunched over plastic baskets of seafood, slicing and sorting products by hand. “They work hard,” the manager said. The factory has exported thousands of tons of fish to companies that supply major U.S. retailers, including Walmart and ShopRite. (A spokesperson for Donggang Haimeng said that it does not hire North Korean workers.)

At times, China aggressively conceals the existence of the program. Alexander Dukalskis, a political-science professor at University College Dublin, said that workers have a hard time making their conditions known. “They’re in a country where they may not speak the language, are under surveillance, usually living collectively, and have no experience in contacting journalists,” he said. In late November, after my team’s investigators visited several plants, authorities distributed pamphlets on the country’s anti-espionage laws. Local officials announced that people who try “to contact North Korean workers, or to approach the workplaces of North Korean workers, will be treated as engaging in espionage activities that endanger national security, and will be punished severely.” They also warned that people who were found to be working in connection with foreign media outlets would face consequences under the Anti-Espionage Act.

Dandong, a city of more than two million people, sits on the Yalu River, just over the border from North Korea. The Sino-Korean Friendship Bridge links Dandong to the North Korean city of Sinuiju. A second bridge, bombed during the Korean War, still extends partway across the river, and serves as a platform from which Chinese residents can view the North Koreans living six hundred yards away. The Friendship Bridge is one of the Hermit Kingdom’s few gateways to the world. Some trade with North Korea is allowed under U.N. sanctions, and nearly seventy per cent of the goods exchanged between that country and China travel across this bridge. At least one department store in Dandong keeps a list of products preferred by North Korean customers. Shops sell North Korean ginseng, beer, and “7.27” cigarettes, named for the date on which the armistice ending the Korean War was signed. The city is home to a museum about the conflict, officially called the Memorial Hall of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea. On boat tours, Chinese tourists purchase bags of biscuits to toss to children on the North Korean side of the river.

Government officials carefully select workers to send to China, screening them for their political loyalties to reduce the risk of defections. To qualify, a person must generally have a job at a North Korean company and a positive evaluation from a local Party official. “These checks start at the neighborhood,” Breuker said. Candidates who have family in China, or a relative who has already defected, can be disqualified. For some positions, applicants under twenty-seven years of age who are unmarried must have living parents, who can be punished if they try to defect, according to a report from the South Korean government; applicants over twenty-seven must be married. North Korean authorities even select for height: the country’s population is chronically malnourished, and the state prefers candidates who are taller than five feet one, to avoid the official embarrassment of being represented abroad by short people. Once selected, applicants go through pre-departure training, which can last a year and often includes government-run classes covering everything from Chinese customs and etiquette to “enemy operations” and the activities of other countries’ intelligence agencies. (The North Korean government did not respond to requests for comment.)

The governments of both countries coördinate to place workers, most of whom are women, with seafood companies. The logistics are often handled by local Chinese recruitment agencies, and advertisements can be found online. A video posted on Douyin this past September announced the availability of twenty-five hundred North Koreans, and a commenter asked if they could be sent to seafood factories. A post on a forum advertised five thousand workers; a commenter asked if any spoke Mandarin, and the poster replied, “There is a team leader, management, and an interpreter.” A company called Jinuo Human Resources posted, “I am a human-resources company coöperating with the embassy, and currently have a large number of regular North Korean workers.” Several people expressed interest. (The company did not respond to requests for comment.)

Jobs in China are coveted in North Korea, because they often come with contracts promising salaries of around two hundred and seventy dollars a month. (Similar work in North Korea pays just three dollars a month.) But the jobs come with hidden costs. Workers usually sign two- or three-year contracts. When they arrive in China, managers confiscate their passports. Inside the factories, North Korean workers wear different uniforms than Chinese workers. “Without this, we couldn’t tell if one disappeared,” a manager said. Shifts run as long as sixteen hours. If workers attempt to escape, or complain to people outside the plants, their families at home can face reprisals. One seafood worker described how managers cursed at her and flicked cigarette butts. “I felt bad, and I wanted to fight them, but I had to endure,” she said. “That was when I was sad.”

Workers get few, if any, holidays or sick days. At seafood plants, the women sleep in bunk beds in locked dormitories, sometimes thirty to a room. One worker, who spent four years processing clams in Dandong, estimated that more than sixty per cent of her co-workers suffered from depression. “We regretted coming to China but couldn’t go back empty-handed,” she said. Workers are forbidden to tune in to local TV or radio. They are sometimes allowed to leave factory grounds—say, to go shopping—but generally in groups of no more than three, and accompanied by a minder. Mail is scrutinized by North Korean security agents who also “surveil the daily life and report back with official reports,” one manager said. Sometimes the women are allowed to socialize. In a video titled “North Korean beauties working in China play volleyball,” posted in 2022, women in blue-and-white uniforms exercise on the grounds of the Dandong Omeca Food seafood plant. (The company that owns the plant did not respond to requests for comment.) A commenter wrote, “The joy of poverty. That’s just how it is.”

Factories typically give the women’s money to their managers, who take cuts for themselves and the government, and hold on to the rest until the workers’ terms in China end. Kim Jieun, a North Korean defector who now works for Radio Free Asia, said that companies tell workers their money is safer this way, because it could be stolen in the dormitories. But, in the end, workers often see less than ten per cent of their promised salary. One contract that I reviewed stipulated that around forty dollars would be deducted each month by the state to pay for food. More is sometimes deducted for electricity, housing, heat, water, insurance, and “loyalty” payments to the state. Managers also hold on to wages to discourage defections. The women have been warned, Kim added, that if they try to defect “they will be immediately caught by Chinese CCTV cameras installed everywhere.” This past October, Chinese authorities repatriated around six hundred North Korean defectors. “China does not recognize North Korean defectors as refugees,” Edward Howell, who teaches politics at Oxford University, told me. “If they are caught by Chinese authorities, they will be forcibly returned to the D.P.R.K., where they face harsh punishment in labor camps.”

Chinese companies have significant incentives to use North Korean workers. They’re typically paid only a quarter of what local employees earn. And they are generally excluded from mandatory social-welfare programs (regarding retirement, medical treatment, work-related injury, and maternity), which further reduces costs. In 2017, Dandong’s Commerce Bureau announced a plan to create a cluster of garment factories that would use North Korean labor. The bureau’s Web site noted that all such workers undergo political screenings to make sure they are “rooted, red, and upright.” “The discipline among the workers is extremely strong,” it added. “There are no instances of absenteeism or insubordination toward leadership, and there are no occurrences of feigning illness or delaying work.” China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs did not respond to questions for this piece, but last year the Chinese Ambassador to the U.N. wrote that China has abided by sanctions even though it has sustained “great losses” as a result. A spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs recently said that China and North Korea have “enjoyed long-standing friendly ties,” adding, “The United States needs to draw lessons, correct course, step up to its responsibility, stop heightening the pressure and sanctions, stop military deterrence, and take effective steps to resume meaningful dialogue.”

North Koreans face difficult circumstances across industries. In January of this year, more than two thousand workers rioted in Jilin Province, breaking sewing machines and kitchen utensils, when they learned that their wages would be withheld. Many North Koreans—perhaps thousands—work in Russian logging, in brutal winter weather without proper clothing. Hundreds have been found working in the Russian construction industry; some lived in shipping containers or in the basements of buildings under construction, because better accommodations were not provided. One recounted working shifts that lasted from 7:30 A.M. to 3 A.M. In preparation for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, held in Russia and Qatar, thousands of North Koreans were sent to build stadiums and luxury apartments. A subcontractor who worked alongside the North Koreans in Russia told the Guardian that they lived in cramped spaces, with as many as eight people packed into a trailer, in an atmosphere of fear and abuse like “prisoners of war.”

Although it’s illegal in the U.S. to import goods made with North Korean labor, the law can be difficult to enforce. Some eighty per cent of seafood consumed in America, for example, is imported, and much of it comes from China through opaque supply chains. To trace the importation of seafood from factories that appear to be using North Korean labor, my team reviewed trade data, shipping contracts, and the codes that are stamped on seafood packages to monitor food safety. We found that, since 2017, ten of these plants have together shipped more than a hundred and twenty thousand tons of seafood to more than seventy American importers, which supplied grocery stores including Walmart, Giant, ShopRite, and the online grocer Weee! The seafood from these importers also ended up at major restaurant chains, like McDonald’s, and with Sysco, the largest food distributor in the world, which supplies almost half a million restaurants, as well as the cafeterias on American military bases, in public schools, and for the U.S. Congress. (Walmart, Weee!, and McDonald’s did not respond to requests for comment. Giant’s parent company, Ahold Delhaize, and ShopRite’s parent company, Wakefern, said their suppliers claimed that they currently do not source from the Chinese plant in question, and added that audit reports showed no evidence of forced labor.)

Two of the plants that investigators from my team visited—Dandong Galicia Seafood and Dalian Haiqing Food—had an estimated fifty to seventy North Korean workers apiece. One worker who has been employed at Galicia said that the managers are “so stingy with money that they don’t allow us to get proper medical treatment even when we are sick.” Galicia and Haiqing have shipped roughly a hundred thousand tons of seafood to American importers since 2017, and Haiqing also shipped to an importer that supplies the cafeterias of the European Parliament. (Dalian Haiqing Food said that it “does not employ overseas North Korean workers.” Dandong Galicia Seafood did not respond to requests for comment. One of the U.S. importers tied to Haiqing, Trident Seafoods, said that audits “found no evidence or even suspicion” of North Korean labor at the plant. Several companies, including Trident, High Liner, and Sysco, said that they would sever ties with the plant while they conducted their own investigations. A spokesperson for the European Parliament said that its food contractor did not supply seafood from the plant.) Breuker, from Leiden University, told me that American customers quietly benefit from this arrangement. “This labor-transfer system is for North Korea and China as economically successful as it is morally reprehensible,” he said. “It’s also a boon for the West because of the cheap goods we get as a result.”

North Korea doesn’t just export seafood workers; it also exports fish—another means by which the government secures foreign currency. Importing North Korean seafood is forbidden by U.N. sanctions, but it also tends to be inexpensive, which encourages companies to skirt the rules. Sometimes Chinese fishing companies pay the North Korean government for illegal licenses to fish in North Korea’s waters. Sometimes they buy fish from other boats at sea: a letter from a North Korean, leaked in 2022, proposed selling ten thousand tons of squid to a Chinese company in return for more than eighteen million dollars and five hundred tons of diesel fuel. Sometimes the seafood is trucked over the border. This trade is poorly hidden. In October, a Chinese man who said his last name was Cui posted a video on Douyin advertising crabs from North Korea. When someone commented, “The goods can’t be shipped,” Cui responded with laughing emojis. In other videos, he explained that he operated a processing plant in North Korea, and gave information on the timing of shipments that he planned to send across the border. When I contacted Cui, he said that he had stopped importing North Korean seafood in 2016 (though the videos were actually from last year), and added, “It’s none of your business, and I don’t care who you are.” My team found that seafood from North Korea was imported by several American distributors, including HF Foods, which supplies more than fifteen thousand Asian restaurants in the U.S. (HF Foods did not respond to requests for comment.)

Chinese companies often claim that they are in compliance with labor laws because they have passed “social audits,” which are conducted by firms that inspect worksites for abuses. But half the Chinese plants that we found using North Korean workers have certifications from the Marine Stewardship Council, which is based in the U.K. and sets standards for granting sustainability certifications, but only to companies that have also passed social audits or other labor assessments. (Jackie Marks, an M.S.C. spokesperson, told me that these social audits are conducted by a third party, and that “We make no claims about setting standards on labor.”) Last year, one of my team’s investigators visited a seafood-processing plant in northeastern China called Dandong Taifeng Foodstuff. The company has been designated a “national brand,” a status reserved for the country’s most successful companies, and supplies thousands of tons of seafood to grocery stores in the U.S. and elsewhere. At the plant, our investigator was given a tour by a North Korean manager. On the factory floor, which was lit by bright fluorescent bulbs, more than a hundred and fifty North Korean women, most of them under thirty-five years old, wore head-to-toe white protective clothing, plastic aprons, white rubber boots, and red gloves that went up to their elbows. They stood with their heads down, moving red, yellow, and blue plastic bins of seafood. Water puddled at their feet. “Quick, quick,” one woman said to the other members of her small group. (Taifeng did not respond to requests for comment.) Just weeks after that visit, the plant was recertified by the Marine Stewardship Council.

Marcus Noland, who works at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, said, of social audits within the seafood industry, “The basic stance appears to be ‘See no evil.’ ” Skepticism of such audits is growing. In 2021, the U.S. State Department said that social audits in China are generally inadequate for identifying forced labor, in part because auditors rely on government translators and rarely speak directly to workers. Auditors can be reluctant to anger the companies that have hired them, and workers face reprisals for reporting abuses. This past November, U.S. Customs and Border Protection advised American companies that a credible assessment would require an “unannounced independent, third-party audit” and “interviews completed in native language.” Liana Foxvog, who works at a nonprofit called the Worker Rights Consortium, argues that assessments should involve other checks too, including off-site worker interviews. But she noted that most audits in China fall short even of C.B.P.’s standards.

Joshua Stanton, an attorney based in Washington, D.C., who helped draft the American law that banned goods produced with North Korean labor, argues that the government is not doing enough to enforce it. “The U.S. government will need to put more pressure on American companies, and those companies need to be more diligent about their suppliers and their supply chains, or face stricter sanctions,” he said. Chris Smith, a Republican congressman from New Jersey and a specialist on China, noted that social audits “create a Potemkin village.” He added, “The consequence is that millions of dollars, even federal dollars, are going to Chinese plants using North Korean workers, and that money then goes right into the hands of Kim Jong Un’s regime, which uses the money to arm our adversaries and repress its own people.”

Late last year, when I set out to contact North Koreans who had been sent to China, I ran into significant obstacles. Western journalists are barred from entering North Korea, and citizens of the country are strictly prohibited from talking freely to reporters. I hired a team of investigators in South Korea who employ contacts in North Korea to get information out of the country for local and Western news outlets—for example, about food shortages, power outages, or the rise of anti-government graffiti. The investigators compiled a list of two dozen North Koreans who had been dispatched to a half-dozen different Chinese factories, most of whom had since returned home. The investigators’ contacts then met with these workers in secret, one-on-one, so that the workers wouldn’t know one another’s identity. The meetings usually occurred in open fields, or on the street, where it’s harder for security agents to conduct surveillance.

The workers were told that their responses would be shared publicly by an American journalism outlet. They faced considerable risk speaking out; experts told me that, if they were caught, they could be executed, and their families put in prison camps. But they agreed to talk because they believe that it is important for the rest of the world to know what happens to workers who are sent to China. The North Korean contacts transcribed their answers by hand, and then took photos of the completed questionnaires and sent them, using encrypted phones, to the investigators, who sent them to me. North Koreans who are still in China were interviewed in a similar fashion. Because of these layers of protection, it is, of course, impossible to fully verify the content of the interviews. But the responses were reviewed by experts to make sure that they are consistent with what is broadly known about the work-transfer program, and in line with interviews given by North Korean defectors. (Recently, the investigators checked in on the interviewers and interviewees, and everyone was safe.)

In their answers, the workers described crushing loneliness. The work was arduous, the factories smelled, and violence was common. “They kicked us and treated us as subhuman,” the worker who processed clams in Dandong said. Asked if they could recount any happy moments, most said that there had been none. A few said that they felt relieved when they returned home and got some of their pay. “I was happy when the money wasn’t all taken out,” the woman who did product transport in Dalian said. One woman said that her experience at a Chinese plant made her feel like she “wanted to die.” Another said that she often felt tired and upset while she was working, but kept those thoughts to herself to avoid reprisals. “It was lonely,” she said. “I hated the military-like communal life.”

The most striking pattern was the women’s description of sexual abuse. Of twenty workers, seventeen said that they had been sexually assaulted by their North Korean managers. They described a range of tactics used to coerce them into having sex. Some managers pretended to wipe something from their uniforms, only to grope them. Some called them into their offices as if there were an emergency, then demanded sex. Others asked them to serve alcohol at a weekend party, then assaulted them there. “When they drank, they touched my body everywhere like playing with toys,” a woman said. The woman who did product transport in Dalian said, “When they suddenly put their mouths to mine, I wanted to throw up.” If the women didn’t comply, the managers could become violent. The worker who was at Haiqing for more than four years said, of her manager, “When he doesn’t get his way sexually, he gets angry and kicks me. . . . He calls me a ‘fucking bitch.’ ” Three of the women said that their managers had forced workers into prostitution. “Whenever they can, they flirt with us to the point of nausea and force us to have sex for money, and it’s even worse if you’re pretty,” another worker at Haiqing said. The worker from Jinhui noted, “Even when there was no work during the pandemic, the state demanded foreign-currency funds out of loyalty, so managers forced workers to sell their bodies.” The worker who spent more than four years at Haiqing said, of the managers, “They forced virgin workers into prostitution, claiming that they had to meet state-set quotas.”

The pandemic made life more difficult for many of the women. When China closed its borders, some found themselves trapped far from home. Often, their workplaces shut down, and they lost their incomes. North Korean workers sometimes pay bribes to government officials to secure posts in China, and, during the pandemic, many borrowed these funds from loan sharks. The loans, typically between two and three thousand dollars, came with high interest rates. Because of work stoppages in China, North Korean workers were unable to pay back their loans, and loan sharks sent thugs to their relatives’ homes to intimidate them. Some of their families had to sell their houses to settle the debts. In 2023, according to Radio Free Asia, two North Korean women at textile plants killed themselves. The worker who told me that she wanted to die said that such deaths are often kept hidden. “If someone dies from suicide, then the manager is responsible, so they keep it under wraps to keep it from being leaked to other workers or Chinese people,” she said.

This past year, pandemic restrictions were lifted, and the border between China and North Korea reopened. In August, some three hundred North Korean workers boarded ten buses in Dandong to go back home. Police officers lined up around the buses to prevent defections. In photos and a video of the event, some of the women can be seen hurriedly preparing to load large suitcases onto a neon-green bus, then riding away across the Friendship Bridge. In September, another three hundred boarded a passenger train to Sinuiju, and two hundred were repatriated by plane. Workers who return face intense questioning by officials. “They asked about every single thing that happened every day from morning to evening in China, about other workers, supervisors, and agents,” the worker who processed clams in Dandong explained. As 2023 ended, the North Korean government began planning to dispatch its next wave of workers. In the past couple of years, according to reporting by Hyemin Son, a North Korean defector who works for Radio Free Asia, labor brokers have requested that Chinese companies pay a large advance; they were being asked to pay ahead of time, one broker told her, because “Chinese companies cannot operate without North Korean manpower.”

Some North Korean workers have yet to go home. One woman said that she has spent the past several years gutting fish at a processing plant in Dalian. She described working late into the night and getting sores in her mouth from stress and exhaustion. In the questionnaire, I had asked about the worst part of her job, and she said, “When I am forced to have sex.” She also described a sense of imprisonment that felt suffocating. “If you show even the slightest attitude, they will treat you like an insect,” she said. “Living a life where we can’t see the outside world as we please is so difficult that it’s killing us.” ♦

Understanding Venmo Business Account Limits

Venmo has become a popular choice for personal transactions, but it also offers robust features for businesses. With its user-friendly interface and instant payment capabilities, Venmo is an appealing option for small businesses and freelancers. However, understanding the limits associated with a Venmo business account is crucial for effective financial management. In this article, we will delve into Venmo business account limits, exploring transaction caps, payment amounts, and strategies to manage your account efficiently.

Introduction to Venmo Business Accounts

Venmo provides two types of accounts: personal and business. A Venmo business account is tailored for merchants and service providers who need to accept payments from customers. This type of account offers a range of features designed to streamline transactions, manage payments, and integrate with accounting software.

Business accounts come with specific transaction limits that are different from those of personal accounts. Understanding these limits helps businesses manage their finances better and avoid potential disruptions.

Explanation of Account Limits for Businesses

Venmo imposes certain limits on business accounts to maintain security and compliance. These limits are designed to prevent fraudulent activities and ensure the system's stability. There are several key limits to be aware of:

Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Transaction Limits

Venmo business accounts have distinct daily, weekly, and monthly limits. These limits dictate the maximum amount of money that can be processed within a given time frame:

Daily Limit: Venmo sets a cap on the amount of money that can be processed per day. For business accounts, this limit is typically higher than for personal accounts, accommodating the needs of businesses that handle significant transaction volumes.

Weekly Limit: The weekly limit encompasses the total amount that can be processed over a seven-day period. This limit helps in managing cash flow and prevents large sums from being transferred in a short time.

Monthly Limit: Monthly limits are set to ensure that businesses do not exceed their allowable transaction volumes. These limits help businesses plan their financial activities and avoid unexpected disruptions.

Maximum Payment Amount for Business Transactions

Venmo also sets a maximum payment amount for each transaction processed through a business account. This cap ensures that large transactions are handled securely and helps in managing risk. The maximum payment amount can vary based on the type of transaction and the account's verification status.

How to Request a Limit Increase for Your Account

If your business needs to process amounts that exceed the standard limits, Venmo allows you to request an increase in your transaction limits. Here’s how you can request a limit increase:

Contact Venmo Support: Reach out to Venmo’s customer support team through the app or their website. Provide details about your business and the reason for the limit increase request.

Provide Required Documentation: Venmo may require additional documentation to process your request. This can include business registration documents, financial statements, and identification.

Follow Up: After submitting your request, monitor your email and Venmo account for updates. Venmo will review your request and inform you of any changes to your limits.

Factors That May Affect Your Account Limits

Several factors can influence the limits imposed on your Venmo business account:

Account Verification: Verified accounts typically have higher limits compared to unverified ones. Completing the verification process enhances security and trustworthiness.

Transaction History: A consistent transaction history with minimal disputes can lead to higher limits. Venmo reviews your transaction patterns to assess risk.

Business Type: The nature of your business can also impact your limits. High-risk industries may face stricter limits compared to lower-risk sectors.

Tips for Managing Your Business Account Effectively

To make the most of your Venmo business account and avoid issues with limits, consider the following tips:

Monitor Transactions Regularly: Keep track of your daily, weekly, and monthly transactions to ensure you stay within the limits.

Plan Your Payments: Schedule large payments strategically to avoid hitting the limits unexpectedly.

Optimize Cash Flow: Use Venmo’s features to manage your cash flow effectively. Regularly review your account to make adjustments as needed.

Stay Informed: Keep up with any changes to Venmo’s policies and limits. Regular updates can affect how you manage your business transactions.

Common Issues with Exceeding Account Limits

Exceeding your Venmo business account limits can lead to several issues:

Transaction Failures: Transactions that surpass the set limits may fail or be delayed, causing disruptions in your business operations.

Account Restrictions: Repeatedly exceeding limits may result in account restrictions or temporary suspension until the issue is resolved.

Fees: Some transactions that exceed the limits may incur additional fees, impacting your business’s financials.

Benefits of Using Venmo for Business Transactions

Despite the limits, Venmo offers several advantages for businesses:

Ease of Use: Venmo’s user-friendly interface simplifies the payment process for both businesses and customers.

Instant Transfers: Venmo allows for instant transfers, improving cash flow and reducing transaction delays.

Integration with Accounting Software: Venmo integrates with various accounting tools, making financial management easier.

Cost-Effective: Venmo offers competitive fees compared to traditional payment processors, making it a cost-effective choice for many businesses.

Conclusion and Final Thoughts on Venmo Business Account Limits

Venmo business accounts offer a convenient and efficient way for businesses to handle transactions. Understanding and managing the account limits is crucial to avoid disruptions and ensure smooth operations. By staying informed about your transaction limits and following best practices for account management, you can make the most of Venmo’s features and benefits.

The United States has sentenced a cryptocurrency fraudster to five years in prison for creating a fake website called Coinbase

Chirag Tomar, an Indian citizen, was sentenced on Thursday to five years in prison for masterminding a multimillion-dollar cryptocurrency scam by creating a fake Coinbase website.

Chilag Tomar pays the price for a cryptocurrency scam According to an Oct. 17 press release from the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of North Carolina, U.S. District Court Judge Kenneth D. Bell further sentenced Tomar, 31, to two years of supervised release.

According to court documents, Tomar and anonymous co-conspirators orchestrated a years-long digital asset scam starting in 2021 by creating multiple fake websites similar to web addresses to defraud Coinbase customers, successfully "impersonating" the cryptocurrency exchange and stealing more than $20 million.

"Once the victim enters his login credentials on the fake website, the authentication process is triggered," the press release reads. "In some cases, victims were tricked into providing the scammers with their login and authentication information on the real Coinbase website."

In other cases, victims were tricked into allowing fake Coinbase representatives to execute remote desktop software, and the scammers were thus able to take control of the victims' computers and access their real Coinbase accounts.

In addition, Tomar and his associates would pose as Coinbase representatives to defraude victims of their funds over the phone.

Once these cryptocurrency scammers gain access to customer accounts, they transfer illicit funds into wallets they control.

Fraudsters impersonating Coinbase stole millions from victims' wallets In one case, a victim in the western district of North Carolina lost $240,000 after being told by a fake Coinbase representative that his account was locked.

Tomar then moved the cryptocurrency into "hundreds" of different wallets under his jurisdiction, through which tens of millions of dollars flowed.

The digital asset scammer eventually converted the value of the tokens into cash and distributed the money to the scam gang members.

According to authorities, Tomar and associates used clients' money to live a "lavish lifestyle," buying expensive watches and luxury cars and traveling abroad.

Tomar was arrested in December 2023 and pleaded guilty to wire fraud conspiracy in May 2024. The charge carries a sentence of up to 20 years in prison.

He has not been assigned to a specific federal correctional facility to serve his sentence.

[japanese-cryptic-beauty]

The nightmare of Visual Novels

So, I found this one website recommending Visual Novels (VN) for reading immersion. (Not to be confused with "graphic novels" which is, at its heart, a fancy term for comic book...) These are basically computer games where you follow a sort of branching story. A very typical one is the "dating sim" where you interact with a variety of love interests and try to, well, "romance" them - by choosing actions they may like, playing the game multiple times to achieve different endings, etc.

Funnily enough I know the concept mostly from the world of anime and manga, one of these meta things where there are now stories being written about VN - which themselves are stories and a way of story-telling. For example, "The World Only God Knows", where a dating sim addict is called upon to romance "actual" girls to drive hellish spirits out of them. Or the hilarious "Romantic Killer", where a gaming addict is forced into living a dating sim scenario.

But this is not about dating sims or the contents of particular VNs, this is about learning Japanese. I came across a website recommending learning Japanese through VNs, and the arguments were convincing:

You get the dialogue displayed on-screen which allows for reading it carefully.

You typically also get a voice-over, so you get also additional listening immersion, something harder to do with, let's say, anime. (Because VNs pause after a certain point and give you time until you continue. Also, depending on streaming site, you don't get Japanese subtitles / CC captions. Like on major anime streaming site Crunchyroll which typically has none of that.)

You can enlist certain programs for capturing text from the most common VN engines to actually use a dictionary with it.

So, sounds great, right?

The Shit You Can't Buy These Days

Welcome to the world of modern capitalism, where the prevention of spending money advances faster than the ability to actually buy stuff.

Huh?

This starts when you try buying these things. The geniuses that try to sell us things have decided that it's not good if we can simply buy stuff. No, this content is surely for that person in that market and can not be had anywhere else. Fans of manga may already be aware of this - some English translations of manga can only be bought in English-speaking countries because obviously those could be the only people ever interested in them...

So, if you live outside of Japan, you obviously have no interest, and hence get no way, to buy Japanese language VN. You may be able to buy an overpriced translated version on some console somewhere, but we won't let you lay your fingers on our precious software, no.

Hurdle #1: Money, money, money

So, there's a site called "DL Site" where you can legally buy Japanese VNs and, surprise, download them. This site also sells for example manga.

One problem: Payment providers, at least the usual Western gang thereof, doesn't like this website. For some reason, payment providers or major credit card companies nowadays like to stay as far away as possible from anything that could be classified as "adult entertainment" - and frankly, many VNs have that vibe. Not all of them. But these payment providers either limit themselves to a squeaky clean portion of the store (manga only, though) or are not available at all.

Mind you, I wasn't hunting for smut. I merely was trying to buy a VN.

I then went on an odyssey for finding a way to pay. Most options were Japan only - either obviously so or more subtly. Credit cards only work if issued in Japan. At some point I got myself a LINE (the Japanese chat app) account to use LINE Pay - only to find out that I cannot transfer funds into it for no apparent reason.

I was about to give up when I found the solution for the payment problem, which is as obscure as it gets. The payment providers don't want to be associated with the content, but there's a companion site to DL Site where you can buy coupons. These coupons can be redeemed into points that are equivalent to Yen and which you can pay with on DL Site, circumventing the absence of Western payment providers. (It actually works just fine, but it does look a bit fishy at first...)

Problem #2: Nah-nah-naaaah-nah

By which I mean: You didn't think it was so easy, right?

Now that you legally own something you paid for and downloaded it unto your Windows computer, can you play it?

No!

For you see, the publishers of these games have quite some opinions as to who can play their games. "Japan only", that's what. Seriously.

What used to be the dreaded copy protection in decades past is now some silly gating of content behind dubious checks that are made to ensure that the Japanese content can only be enjoyed in Japan.

I don't even pretend to understand why!

Seriously, the software in questions may check:

Your timezone

Your language settings

Your input settings

Your locale (date, time format, etc)

And only if these are sufficiently "Japanese" it may permit you to actually play the game you own (after all, you entered your serial).

The lengths to which a game company goes just to prevent you from playing their game, not for pirating reasons, but simply for ensuring that you are Japanese, is absurd.

At first I tried to run the game inside a virtual environment, "Virtual Box", but no matter how hard I tried, it wouldn't start there. It was quite a demanding little game... for something that plays some music and shows mostly static images and text.

But... do you really want to change all your content, input, language, and time settings to Japanese to start a game? Do you?

There's a way to simplify this a bit. You can have a second account on your Windows computer with all these settings in place, I called mine simply "Japanese". But frankly, that's also shit. Because to use a separate account you have to sign out of your main account, which closes all your apps, browser windows, etc. (Yes, Windows isn't exactly a true multi-user system in its consumer version.)

So this is a big hassle to just play a game for half an hour. (After all, you're brushing up your Japanese, you aren't fluent, so you'll probably tire of it at some point.)

Conclusion

Trying to lay your hands on a Japanese VN as a gaikokujin (foreigner) is a major hassle. Frankly, after managing to make the game run, I didn't actually play it because it had been so tiresome to actually make it work and there were major hoops to jump through just to get it to start.

Now, if you have a second computer, say, a laptop, this can all be navigated, but I spent hours on two separate days just to get to the point where the game was bought, downloaded, installed, and worked. The requirement to mangle some fundamental settings on my computer to just start many of these games doesn't sit well with me.

I never even installed the support for dictionaries because I felt I was done with it.

Digital Signature Software:Revolutionizing Document Security and Workflow Efficiency

In today's digital-first world, ensuring the authenticity and integrity of documents is more critical than ever. Digital signature software has emerged as a powerful solution, offering secure, efficient, and legally binding ways to sign electronic documents. This article explores what digital signature software is, how it works, its benefits, and the top solutions available today.

What is Digital Signature Software?

Digital signature software is a tool that allows users to sign documents electronically using a cryptographic process. Unlike traditional electronic signatures, which may just be an image or typed name, digital signatures use advanced algorithms to encrypt and verify the authenticity of the signer and the integrity of the document.

This technology ensures:

The identity of the signer is confirmed.

The document has not been altered after signing.

The signature is legally binding in most countries.

How Digital Signature Software Works

Digital signature software uses public key infrastructure (PKI), which involves two cryptographic keys:

A private key used by the signer to create the signature.

A public key used by recipients to verify the signature.

When a document is signed, the software generates a unique digital fingerprint (hash) of the document and encrypts it with the signer’s private key. The recipient can then use the public key to decrypt the signature and compare the hash to ensure the document hasn’t been tampered with.

Key Benefits of Digital Signature Software

Security and Integrity Digital signatures use encryption to provide the highest level of security, preventing forgery and unauthorized changes.

Legality and Compliance Most countries, including the US (ESIGN Act) and the EU (eIDAS regulation), recognize digital signatures as legally binding.

Efficiency and Speed Businesses can eliminate printing, scanning, and mailing delays by signing and sharing documents instantly online.

Cost Savings Reduces paper, postage, and administrative costs significantly.

Audit Trails Most software includes detailed logs that track when, where, and by whom a document was signed.

5. Zoho Sign

Healthcare: Securing patient consent forms and prescriptions.

Real Estate: Handling lease agreements and property transfers.

Finance: Verifying loan applications, invoices, and compliance documents.

Human Resources: Digitally signing offer letters, onboarding documents, and performance reviews.

Final Thoughts

As organizations increasingly shift toward digital operations, digital signature software is becoming an indispensable tool. It not only enhances document security and compliance but also streamlines workflows, saving both time and money.
