‘We Now Know Why Eric Schmidt is in North Korea’ – ‘Mashable’

Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai says, “Much controversy and mystery has surrounded Google’s Eric Schmidt and former New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson’s trip to North Korea. U.S. officials have criticized it, calling it ill-timed given the regime’s allegedly illegal launch of a satellite last month. And ever since the first rumorsabout the trip came out, it hasn’t been clear what its purpose was, with Richardson simply calling it a “private humanitarian trip.”For Google‘s executive chairman, it turns out the endeavor was all about Internet freedom”.
