Cyber Bullying
Cyber-bullying (predominantly spelled cyberbullying by many researchers) is when someone repeatedly makes fun of another person online or repeatedly picks on another person through emails or text messages, or uses online forums and postings online intended to harm, damage, humiliate or isolate another person that they don’t like.
The National Crime Prevention Council criterion of what constitutes cyber-bullying is “when the Internet, cell phones, or other devices are used to send or post text or images intended to hurt or embarrass another person.”
Online bullying, called cyberbullying, happens when teens use the Internet, cell phones, or other devices to send or post text or images intended to hurt or embarrass another person. Cyberbullying researchers Hinduja and Patchin define cyber-bullying as: “willful and repeated harm inflicted through the medium of electronic text” and recently updated the definition to account for cyberbullying through the internet that occurs without actual text, such as videos being uploaded to YouTube, for example.
