I wonder why such regimes always block traffic and information exchange ? I see no evidence that it make them more stable. Lack of information makes disinformation easier, among other things.
 
There is an example which proves the opposite. Yugoslavia was a communist country, but they have chose to open up the border at some point in the 1950's. People were allowed to travel in and out, as they please. Some foreign papers were available, one could buy them at regular newspaper stands, 'Newsweek', for example. In the end, Yugoslavia went down at about the same time as all other communist countries, ones which had strict closed border policy. I fail to see any benefit of closed border policies.
