Jono sent us an email to let us know that he decided to send an Apple AirTag to North Korea. On top of that, he also sent one to Apple CEO Tim Cook and Tesla CEO Elon Musk.
The video below shows us what happened when an AirTag was sent all the way to North Korea. Let’s find out if it was delivered. All three of the AirTags were sent from Germany using DHL.
Tracking the AirTags
As we can see from the video, the AirTag sent to Apple CEO Tim Cook and the one sent to Elon Musk were successfully delivered in the USA. This demonstrates the reliability of DHL’s delivery service within the United States and the effectiveness of Apple’s AirTag in tracking parcels.
However, the North Korea parcel ended up not being delivered. This is not entirely surprising given the strict regulations and limited postal services in North Korea. International parcels often face significant challenges when being sent to countries with stringent import controls and limited infrastructure.
Second Attempt to North Korea
Undeterred by the initial failure, Jono decided to send a second parcel to North Korea, this time to a different address. This second attempt has not arrived yet, although hopefully, we should get an update on whether or not it arrives in the future. The challenges faced in delivering to North Korea highlight the complexities of international shipping, especially to countries with restrictive policies.
Sending an AirTag to North Korea is an interesting experiment that underscores the limitations of global logistics networks. While technology like AirTags can provide real-time tracking and enhance the security of parcels, geopolitical factors and local regulations can still pose significant barriers.
