For those who like to spice things up by sending lewd text messages, be careful, or your short message service may be suspended.
China Mobile, the country's largest cell-phone operator, is cooperating with the country’s public security administrations to crack down on unlawful texting activities, including smishing, racketeering and sending lewd content, the Nanfang Daily reported Wednesday.
Sending just one unlawful text message will result in suspension of the texting service. To get it back, the person would have to submit a written promise to the public security authority not to send unlawful messages again, said the report.
