I can’t make this stuff up.  Starting this week, courts in Saudi Arabia have to notify wives that their marriage has ended — by text.

Why?

From the Guardian:  “The measure approved by the justice ministry appears to be aimed at curbing cases of men secretly ending marriages without informing their wives.”

The article goes on to say that women will be notified electronically of any changes to their marital status and will have the ability to pull up any documents related to the matter through a website.

How progressive. 🙄  — [eric]
