Not related to technology though, but the following news is very funny. An Australian tourist woman, named Pauline Clayton, has been charged with assault after telling a Texas woman to stop talking on her mobile phone at the cinema! What did exactly Ms Clayton do until she can get into trouble? Nothing. All she did was touch the woman’s arm (the one who keep talking on the phone) to get her attention, and suddently that woman got angry, walked out of the cinema, and come back with police officers. She accused Ms Clayton of “invading her private space” and filed a complaint of assault because Ms Clayton had touched her. Wow.

Ms Clayton said the officers had tried to dissuade the woman from making a complaint and had even told the woman that if she did make the complaint, police would charge the woman with disorderly conduct and using a profanity for her outburst in the cinema.

The woman refused to back down and not only was Ms Clayton charged, but the woman is now also due in court after being charged over her behaviour.

Oh, and if you wonder why there’s an image of Brokeback Mountain above, well, that’s the movie being watched by these two women.
