 Online Safety, Security,
Ethics and Netiquette
The internet is the guiding technology of
the Information Technology Age just as the
electrical engine was of the Industrial Age. In
these times, more and more people are already
engaged in the use of technology. These people
who are raised in a digital, media-saturated
world are called digital natives.
No doubt, the Internet has been very
useful to us but with the rise of instant
messaging, chat rooms, emails and social
networking sites, it can also bring trouble - from
cyberbullying to more serious Internet dangers,
including exposure to sexual predators. Thus,
internet safety is always our primary concern.
There's almost no limit to what you
can do online. The Internet makes
it possible to access information
quickly, communicate around the
world, and much more.
Unfortunately, the Internet is also
home to certain risks, such as
malware, spam, and phishing. If
you want to stay safe online, you'll
need to understand these risks
and learn how to avoid them.
