Cyberbullying is the act of harassing
people over the internet using e-mails and chat rooms. It is a terrible thing
to do because you get stalked by people that are just there to constantly
harass you. You can try your best to block the bullies, but most of the time
they find another way to message you more hatred and it never ends. In one case
of cyberbullying, it got so bad that a girl commited suicide over it.
In the article
Girl’s Suicide Points to Rise in Apps Used by Cyberbullies, it states: “Inside
her phone’s virtual world, she had changed her user name on Kik Messenger, a
cellphone application, to “That Dead Girl” and delivered a message to two
friends, saying goodbye forever. Then she climbed a platform at an abandoned
cement plant near her home in the Central Florida city of Lakeland and leaped
to the ground, the Polk County sheriff said.”
I agree with you it's terrible how cyber bullies annoy the victims by harassing them constantly.
ReplyDeleteThats terrible and it's so sad people push others to a point of no return. Unfortunately, there comes a point where you just have to get off the Internet and "unplug" if you will.
ReplyDeleteIt is terrible and probably the people who join in on the cyber bullying do not even know the person personally.
ReplyDeleteThis is why I wish they would make block functions more complex, but then again, how can we do that?
