Why is North Korea even allowed to connect to the internet?

Doesn't the US still control the internet?

Why don't we just cut them off?  What good does it do the US to allow North Korea internet access?

then why don't we just delete their AOL account?  

ps
i have not been able to determine their transit connection in terms of bandwidth.  i wouldn't even call it a peering connection, as their country-wide network is (topologically) far smaller than what we have in our R&D labs on one floor of one building.   but i am guessing that they are getting an E1 (2.048Mb/s) or E3 (34Mb/s) or so from China Unicom.  their border router is definitely a cisco box; that was determined by the author (a NANOG guy) of the link i posted above.  

ps
i don't see how they "stole" 100TB of Sony data over an E1 or E3 link.    
it would take a really, really, really long time...

let's say it were possible.  what would it solve?

keep in mind that NK "actors" could also be working from China, Russia, Australia, Thailand, Germany, Canada, Mexico, etc, et al, and/or from the apartment down the street from you in Virginia via a 50Mbps FIOS connection.

what's your plan now?

WASHINGTON — North Korea’s already tenuous links to the Internet went completely dark on Monday after days of instability, in what Internet monitors described as one of the worst North Korean network failures in years.

The loss of service came just days after President Obama pledged that the United States would launch a “proportional response” to the recent attacks on Sony Pictures, which government officials have linked to North Korea.

Doug Madory, the director of Internet analysis at Dyn Research, an Internet performance management company, said that North Korean Internet access first became unstable late Friday. The situation worsened over the weekend, and by Monday, North Korea’s Internet was completely offline.

Temporarily. Like what is happening now. But I doubt any hackers working for NK are in NK. More than likely they would be in China or other places around the world.
