Occurs when a bully targets a victim using online communication methods such as texting or social media posts to threaten, abuse, or degrade someone. It’s a crime that doesn’t require physical strength or a face-to-face meeting. Anyone with an internet connection and a digital device can be a cyberbully.
Because of these, we have to be careful with our digital footprint.
As information becomes public, anyone can be easily discovered, and tracked down which is useful not just for potential employers but criminals as well.
- Be aware of who can view your profile!
- Avoid inappropriate language, comments and jokes that may cause problems and may lead to cyberbullying!
