Man gets $256 for nuisance text messages

$256? That's it? I suppose something is better than nothing, but I'd be pretty damned annoyed if I was getting text messges constantly. I get enough now as it is and just THOSE are annoying. Come to think of it I think I am going to call my cell phone company and get them turned off. Damn stalkers.

BEIJING - A court has ordered a Chinese television production company to pay damages to a man who received more than 3,000 nuisance messages after his mobile phone number was used in a police TV drama.

The court said the Runshi Rongguang Film Production Co. should have made sure the number was not in use before having a villain say it aloud on-screen, China's official Xinhua News Agency reported.
