    Taking photos in Saudi Arabia can get you jailed

    This is a travel warning to anyone who is considering going to Saudi Arabia to watch Ruiz vs Joshua II. You can even get jailed for taking a selfie. Be careful and be safe.

    The Saudi Gazette, a leading English-language newspaper in Saudi Arabia, recently reported on the scary downsides of street photography in the country. “Taking pictures as a hobby can lead you straight to prison if you violate the cybercrime law and post the picture online,” the paper writes.
    If you'd like a long and fruitful career as a street photographer, Saudi Arabia might not be the most welcoming place for you to pursue it. Shooting

      Sounds fair enough. Can I wear blue jeans in public there or would I get beheaded for that?

        Nice place. They are on pace to execute more than 100 people by beheading this year.

        Sword sharpener must be a booming profession.

              Being in Mexico can get you killed by the drug cartels as well.
