A court in Taiwan has sentenced a blogger to 30 days in jail and two years probation for writing a negative restaurant review. The blogger, whom media identified only by her surname Liu, wrote that the restaurant's noodles were too salty and that it had cockroaches. The court said she should not have said the restaurant's food was salty because she tried only one dish during just one visit. The court also ordered her to pay NT$200,000 to the restaurant in compensation for lost business.
