Beep! Beep! You have Broken the Law.
medscaper writes "Authorities in China are using computers to spam mobile phones of law-breakers until they turn themselves in. Apparently, lots of illegal advertisements as stickers with mobile-phone numbers listed are placed around large cities and are becoming an eyesore. So, the authorities call the cell phones incessantly with recorded messages that demand the "businessmen" to turn themselves in."
You are an ass. Try this: either you're at work, or you're at the movies. Stop trying to do both. Before you tell me how important your job is and how you NEED to have the phone, some how the human race survived and shit got done before cell phones. Doctors and other emergency personnel managed to keep the human race from killing itself off before cell phones even existed, they should be able to go the theater without their phones now.
Yeah, it really sucks your job keeps you on a leash, but don't punish those around you. So your phone is on vibrate. Do you also sit on the aisle in the last row by the exit?
