You may ask this question that what are the differences between cyber bullying and traditional bullying? If you refer to a dictionary (or your knowledge) you will find out that bully-ing means using your strength over a weaker person to harm or intimidate. Bullying may happen in the real world or in the cyber space . Again technology ,like a to edge blade ,shows one of its disadvantages instead of its benefits. In the other word , technology create another place , which is internet , for people who want to disturb others with more facilities . On the aggregate , bullying is bullying , what is different is the platform . In the traditional bullying people use streets , offices and parks to hurt others and in the cyber bullying people use chat rooms , emails and social networks to reach their purpose.
One of the most important points about the cyber space is that people can easily create virtual identities to mask their original identities , so people have opportunity to do things under the other's names , so it is an opportunity for people to engage in cyber bullying anonymously.
People should be noticed that the cyber space is a different space with it's specific characteristics . I do believe that behaviors like bullying is an emphasis on the necessity and importance of "CYBER LAW".
