I remember once I was experienced the situation of cyberbullying when I was messages by an agent of insurance
through whatsapp application, The guy said that I have an amount of debt which is not yet settle and ask for
settlement immediately. Instantly I not respond to him. The message comes up again and again, It make me feel
annoying and as a solution I just ignore the messages and block it. In today s world which has been made
smaller by technology, new age problems have been born. No doubt technology has a lot of benefits; however, it
also comes with a negative side. It has given birth to cyberbullying. To put it simply, cyberbullying refers to the
misuse of information technology with the intention to harass others. Cyberbullying should be banned because
it caused lot of problem and lead to depression. In other words, cyberbullying has become very common
nowadays. It includes actions to manipulate, harass and defame any person. These hostile actions are seriously
damaging and can affect anyone easily and gravely. They take place on social media, public forums, and other
online information websites. A cyberbully is not necessarily a stranger; it may also be someone you know. The
authority plays a major role to prevent the activity of cyberbullying in order to preserve peace and harmony of
mind. Major punishment such as high amount of penalty, prisoning or sack the doer from the country may help
to reduce the activity of cyberbullying and hopefully will stop the cyberbullying activity in the future.
Cyberbullying prevention is the need of the hour. It needs to be monitored and put an end to. There are various
ways to tackle cyberbullying. We can implement them at individual levels as well as authoritative levels. In
conclusion, awareness is the key to prevent online harassment. We should make the children aware from an
early age so they are always cautious. Moreover, parents must monitor their children s online activities and limit
their usage. Most importantly, cyberbullying must be reported instantly without delay. This can prevent further
incidents from taking place.
