They eat ice cream and read 'Harry Potter,' but these North Korean YouTubers aren't what they seem

Seoul, South Korea CNN  —  The young woman rifles through a fridge of popsicles, pulling out several to show the camera. “This is milk flavor – the picture is so cute,” she says in English, pointing to the cartoon packaging with a smile. “And this is peach flavor.” After finally selecting an ice cream cone, she bites into it, declaring: “The biscuit is very delicious.” The four-minute video has racked up more than 41,000 views on YouTube, but this is no ordinary vlog. The woman, who calls herself YuMi, lives in North Korea, perhaps the world’s most isolated and secretive nation. Her YouTube channel, created last June, is one of several social media accounts that have popped up across the internet in the past year or two, in which North Korean residents claim to share their everyday lives. But experts say not all is as it seems in these videos, and that the images contain tell-tale signs that the lives displayed are far from the norm for the impoverished millions under the dictatorship of leader Kim Jong Un. Instead, they suggest, YuMi and others like are likely related to high-ranking officials and may be part of a propaganda campaign aimed

Newton police sued over traffic stop that generated 1.6 million YouTube views

An Iowa college student whose YouTube video of a police traffic stop generated 1.6 million views is now suing the city of Newton for false arrest. In a lawsuit filed this week in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa, Tayvin Galanakis, 19, of Newton alleges the city and its police department are guilty of false arrest, civil rights violations and negligent supervision and training. Galanakis alleges that shortly after midnight on Aug. 28, 2022, he was pulled over by Newton Police Officer Nathan Winters and Lt. Christopher Wing after he drove past their patrol car without dimming his headlights for oncoming traffic. Video of the traffic stop shows Galanakis telling Winters and Wing he was driving with his high beams on because one of his headlights had a broken bulb. “How much have you had to drink tonight?” one of the officers asked, as seen in the body-camera footage later obtained and posted online by Galanakis. “None,” Galanakis responded. “What do you mean ‘none’?” the officer asked. “I’ve had nothing to drink,” Galanakis said. “OK,” the officer said. “Why would you — why would your eyes be watery and bloodshot?” Later, the same officer asked Galanakis again
