If I read this correctly, no new law has been passed. They made punishment harsher for insults (侮辱罪) an existing crime which is not specific to cyberbullying.

- dfxm12 4y agoCorrect. They didn't even increase a minimum punishment, they just expanded the possible punishments, so you could still get the old, light, punishment. Also of note, these changes will be reviewed after three years to see if they are too harsh.
- bamboozled 4y agoWhat is the point of that though ? They’re either too harsh or not? How do you find out in three years ? There is also an election in three years. I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s not a coincidence?
