More astonishing still is how South Koreans have embraced the Internet as a tool for living, American-style. In what was a tradition-bound, dirt-poor farming country barely a generation ago, South Koreans are going online to network, day trade, date and prowl for sex. Ambitious start-up companies are churning out content to meet the billowing demand. Computer gaming has become a professional sport, with sponsorships, prize money and battles performed in public.

...tasks become clear. Three criminals are on the prowl around Harvard. Near the Radcliffe Quad, a bike thief escaped during a recent foot pursuit. Another man has been breaking into the vending machines in the Law School's tunnels--every machine has been hit once.

Their mission: to hunt down ships smuggling Iraqi oil in violation of United Nations sanctions. It's a game of nautical cat and mouse, as U.S. spy satellites and surveillance planes pick out possible smugglers and relay their whereabouts to ships down below. The smugglers are beyond the U.N.'s reach as long as they stay in Iraqi and Iranian territorial waters. But there are a few swaths of water beyond the U.S.-recognized...
