Boy can you imagine the James Webb telescope they would shove up your ass if someone from North Korea stole your identity and used it to get paid from an American company?
Like would the US authorities just take your word for it surely not right? I'm thinking minimum of like a 30 day investigation and your electronics seized.
Idk just thinking about that scenario though is wild like "Oh man my identity got stolen how the fuck could my life get any worse?" KNOCK KNOCK
