Cyberbullying

Cyberbullying is bullying that takes place over digital devices like cell phones,
computers, and tablets. Cyberbullying can occur through SMS, Text, and apps, or
online in social media, forums, or gaming where people can view, participate in, or
share content. Cyberbullying includes sending, posting, or sharing negative, harmful,
false, or mean content about someone else. It can include sharing personal or private
information about someone else causing embarrassment or humiliation. Some
cyberbullying crosses the line into unlawful or criminal behavior

Posting Private Information

Children do not yet understand social boundaries. They may post personal
information online, for example in their social media profiles that should not be out in
public. This might be anything from images of awkward personal moments to their home
addresses

Solution:

By spreading awareness and by educating people especially youth: which are the
ones who are more exposed to social media platforms, the mentioned threats brought
by these cybercrimes can be avoided. Implementing a much more effective law that will
secure the privacy of every individual in the surface web will greatly protect us from
these threats. Anti-cybercrime lectures or seminars in every private and public schools
will instantly boost the effectiveness of this spreading for the youth. We can’t afford to
let our youth to be manipulated and pollute by the goons that are hiding in the deeper
part of the web.
