Is it illegal to chat online?

Legal analysis: whether it is illegal to chat with netizens in obscene language on the internet depends on the attitude of the other party. If the other person is disgusted with the way of chatting and unwilling to continue chatting, then the behavior may be illegal and become sexual harassment or indecency. If the other party calls the police and the public security organ intervenes, it will be handled according to the seriousness of the case and may be detained. If the other party is willing to talk, you and I are willing to talk happily, creating space. In this case, it is not illegal. The police won't care.
