last years falcon (crowdstrike specific conference) they for the first time every showed live the interviews of 3 north koreans trying to get a job in software engineering positions at some forture 500 companies. i was baffled at every 'security' question to validate the person is actually in the US gets glossed over like: "my ID is at my home right now, and im in my office so i don't have that with me".

As long as the speech pattern matches, the defenses are down. Just look at the formulaic responses of Russian bots/trolls.

"As a [role,gender,national ] posting from [country, city]..

[I agree with parent] *2 sentences .

[Actual opinion\story to push]

[Reminder on connting nationality/location ] "Thats my two Eurocents on that, take it or leave it ."

Its hyper fake, formulaic responses topic tugboats, but people go and engage in good faith all the time .

I mean you see that here on HN right? People claiming that any arbitrary question is something they have no idea about, like the color of their front door.
