It usually depends on the registrar, not the country the business resides in. Just because you live in North Korea doesn't automatically give you free license to go out and snatch up domain names of successful companies and profit from it. The rightful owner of the domain name will simply put in a dispute with the registry service and very likely get their domain back in short order.

In disputes arising from registrations allegedly made abusively (such as "cyber-squatting" and ?cyber-piracy"), the uniform policy provides an expedited administrative procedure to allow the dispute to be resolved without the cost and delays often encountered in court litigation. In these cases, you can invoke the administrative procedure by filing a complaint with one of the dispute-resolution service providers.
