Online insults, even in comments, can cause trouble: UAE to people
Authorities in UAE have warned social media users against posting or replying to any type of content, whether written, audio, video, or live streams, in a negative or defamatory manner. "The law is clear, online insults, even within comment threads or replies, [can lead to legal trouble]," an official told Khaleej Times. Those found guilty can be jailed or fined.
