Korea Fines Illegal Spam Senders Up to 6% of Sales

The South Korean government has introduced revised communication laws targeting illegal spam senders and mobile carriers who fail to prevent such activities. The updated law imposes fines of up to six percent of relevant sales, along with additional measures to confiscate proceeds from illegal operations.

Previously, penalties were criticized as insufficient compared to the profits generated by spam activities. The revised legislation aims to address this gap and enhance public safety in digital communications.
