Pretty sure China would rather have a different neighbor. North Korea keeps getting propped up because nobody wants to deal with a nuclear capable nation collapsing and the absolutely massive refugee crisis it would cause. The Chinese govt is not too friendly with the Kim dynasty, even less so since they intensified their relations with Russia.
Google Street View wasn’t updated for 15 years in Germany because of that. There was a huge drama when it was first announced and people were scared it would be used by criminals to scout buildings, leading to everyone blurring their houses. It got so bad that Google basically just gave up.
I remember looking up an address in 2020, only to find out that the house didn’t even exist yet on the capture from 2008 lol.
