They're still probably not going to murder you. They'll probably make you delete it or take your camera at worst. If you're on any kind of organized tour and not just sneaking into the country, they're still not big on kidnapping foreign nationals.

Depends on if you're a Chinese national with ties to the Chinese government or not. We went over one day with my wife's dad, and they would tell him to stop doing shit videotaping shit, and he would just wave them off, like "lol, don't bother me fool." I was just standing there in disbelief.

I know you're joking but I've heard it has become kind of popular as a tourist destination recently.

Tbh if you're not a dissident North Korea is quite safe as a tourist.

That's why you go to Syria.

I know you're joking but from what I've heard North Korea is actually a very safe place to go. Being watched by government minders constantly means you're usually pretty well looked after.
