June’s Local SK Elections – Influenced by the North?

Hmm, combine this story about Twitter and similar Internet services influencing the results of Wednesday’s (2 June) election in South Korea with this one on North Korean hackers stealing the IDs of South Korean citizens in order to make postings on South Korean websites and you can make a very interesting case about North Korea attempting to use modern information warfare techniques to influence popular opinion and elections in the South. My question – why isn’t the South, or even the U.S., trying to do something similar?
