RESPONSIBLE USE OF TECHNOLOGY
Online safety is a serious concern. Widen the knowledge on this by learning
the terminologies associated with the safe and responsible use of digital technology.
Such terms are:

Cyber Wellness is the positive well-being of internet users that involves an

understanding of online behavior, and awareness of how to protect oneself in
cyberspace which focuses on promoting everyone to become a responsible user of
digital technology.

Cyber Safety is the responsibility to behave in cyberspace and reduce danger

online, which includes protecting personal information, not giving away passwords,
keeping computers and browsers up-to-date, using antivirus software, maintaining
a firewall, and learning what antisocial online behavior looks like (storypark.com).

Cyber Security is the practice of defending computers, servers, mobile devices,

electronic systems, networks, and data from malicious attacks (also known as
information technology security or electronic information security).

Cyber Ethics is the code of responsible behavior on the internet and/or acceptable
behavior in the real world that should also be observed in cyberspace.

There are dangers in engaging in negative or irresponsible online behaviors.

Such dangers are:

a. Pornography is printed or visual material containing the explicit description or

display of sexual organs or activity intended to stimulate erotic rather than
aesthetic or emotional feelings (e.g. obscene pictures, writings, drawings,
motion pictures, videos, or the like).

b. Internet Addiction, is a behavioral addiction in which a person becomes

dependent on the use of the internet, or other online devices, as a maladaptive
way of coping with life’s stresses.

Examples of Internet Addiction are:

(a) Relationship Addiction, is the act of individuals deeply involved with

finding and maintaining relationships online, often forgetting and neglecting
real-life family and friends. The relationships are often formed in chat rooms
or different social networking sites but can occur anywhere you can interact
with people online.

(b) Computer or Gaming Addiction, which involves online and offline activities
that can be done with a computer or mobile device. People who are addicted
don’t want to stop and hate having to be without their game. They think
about it all the time.
 (c) Social Media Addiction, a behavioral addiction that is defined by being
overly concerned about social media, driven by an uncontrollable urge to log
on to or use social media, and devoting so much time and effort to social
media that it impairs other important life areas.

c. Meeting Online Strangers. There is nothing wrong with this, but the danger
comes if the person meets a sexual predator online. These are people who will
not tell their real identity and will sexually solicit online. They target children
and teenagers; hence, they visit websites that are for younger people and leave
sexually suggestive comments.

d. Exposure to Violent Conduct has something to do with someone’s exposure to

violence. This is a serious matter because if a person is exposed to this, they
might be affected mentally and emotionally.

e. Online Gambling. The negative effects of excessive online gambling may include
neglecting daily responsibilities (work, school, family) to play online; using
internet gambling to numb or avoid negative feelings such as anxiety,
loneliness, or depression; becoming moody when online access is not available
or denied; borrowing money to ‘win back’ previous gambling losses and stealing
money from family or friends; or engaging in other types of criminal behavior to
support online gambling habits.

f. Unwanted Sharing of Information Online. Criminals or hackers get personal

information online by lying about who they are, to convince people to share
account numbers, passwords, and other information so they can purchase
things in your name.

g. Online Sexual Behaviors. It is a virtual sex encounter in which two or more

people are connected through the internet. People involved here send each
other sexually explicit messages describing a sexual experience.

h. Cyberbullying. This is the kind of bullying that takes place over the internet.
This includes sending, posting, or sharing negative, harmful, false, or mean
content about someone that can cause embarrassment or humiliation.

Carlota’s Experience in Social Media

Carlota, a senior high school student, is the president of the Supreme Student
Government (SSG) of the University of San Isidro. She spends most of her time in
school doing several activities such as meeting with her officers, printing activities,
monitoring and organizing events, and other extra-curricular activities. She is
famous because of her position in school. She is also active in social media and has
many followers. She gets thousands of like and share in every reel and video she
posted. All of her activities in life that are shared in social media attract more
followers. Through social media, she gained more fans and more followers in and
outside the school. The semester break came - her family went on a trip in Baguio.
They rented a hotel room for 5 days. On the first day of their vacation, they visited
different tourist sites: Burnham Park, Camp John Hay, Botanical Garden, and
Strawberry Farm. In the evening, her family went to the night market while Carlota
stayed in the hotel with her cell phone alone. After 5 minutes, a message popped
up from one of her follower named Louis. She was bored, so she exchanged
messages with the guy. They talked about personal life and she felt at ease with the
guy even though they haven’t yet seen each other personally.

As days passed by, she refused to go with her family to enjoy other tourists’
spots and chose to stay in the hotel and chat with the guy the whole day. Their
exchange of messages became intimate and the boy requested Carlota to send
photos of tourist spots she visited then later requested to send photos of herself -
naked. Before the end of their trip, her dad saw her phone ringing on the table
while she is taking a bath. He read the name of the caller but he is not familiar
with it. Her dad ask Carlota about the caller and she said, ”It’s just a follower,
Dad.”

A few days after, her friend, Jenny, sent screenshots of her photos circulating
online. It was posted by Louis. Carlota tried contacting him asking to turn the
posts down but he already blocked her in all of his social media accounts. Carlota
was left with nothing to do. She files a lawsuit against Louis
