Punishment in China for sending porn messages

China put a stop to a variety of societal nuisances (pun intended).

Now one can end up to nine days' detention for "repeatedly send text messages containing pornographic, threatening or fraudulent information." Is this depending on the definition of porn provided by the government or ... - just kidding.

Pet owners who "have purposely intimidated or even harmed others using their animals can be detained for up to nine days and fined up to 500 yuan." It happens!

The same punishment applies to a "person who violates the privacy of others by peeping at, secretly taking pictures of, or eavesdropping on those engaged in private, but legal, activities." Does this involve peeping as a job of security officers or peeping into other people's email?

People who sing or play loud music, thereby disturbing others, may be fined up to 500 yuan. Sadly for those who can sing well but whose nice organ doesn't receive the respect they deserve.
