6:10Now PlayingIn an unexpected legal twist in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, the simple act of sending a love heart emoji to a girl can now lead to serious legal consequences. According to laws in both countries, these tokens of affection are deemed to incite debauchery and harassment, crimes that carry fines and jail time. Kuwaiti lawyer Haya Al Shalahi recently warned that those found guilty could face up to two years in prison and a fine of 6,499 US dollars. A Saudi cybercrime expert further clarified that in Saudi Arabia, sending red heart emojis on WhatsApp could be considered “harassment,” emphasizing that “certain images and expressions during online conversations may turn into a harassment crime if a lawsuit is filed by the aggrieved party.” This legal stance has led to a renewed conversation about digital communication norms, privacy, and cultural values in the modern age.
