I am curious about something that came to my mind recently and that is, in China is it possible to pirate and how?

About China I only know about the firewall and little else, so before I say something idiotic or something that sounds very ignorant, I'd rather you enlighten me.

And by extension, North Korea?

Watching foreign movies is illegal north korea. They might not care about the right holders, but they certainly care about not letting their citizen watch foreign movies.

I was thinking in the line of more on facilitating piracy and profiting from that on a state level rather than watching it on a personal level. You know being a haven for pirates and hacking groups.

Pirates and hacking groups rebellious spirit seems to run counter with what North Korean government stood for, so I doubt their government would facilitating them except due to massive oversight or incompetence. Also, can you get fast internet on North Korea? According to some survey, the average internet speed there is 2 mbps.
