CYBER BULLYING.
Today in the
21st century as we are going deeper and deeper in this cyber world
the insecurity to be safe is also increasing. Today, no doubt most of the
people around us are using the internet for some of the other purposes. From children
to adults all are taking its benefits. It provides us a source of
entertainment, knowledge, fiction. But, today as more and more people are
joining it, more and more crimes are emerging. In fact, today cyber bullying
has become one of the most common crimes
taking place over the internet.
Cyber
Bulling is an offensive term which means harassing people through internet by
passing mean comments about them, sending them vulgar memes, images or even
blackmailing them.
Today, this offensive
crime has reached its peak, no doubt that people today are more insecure in
this virtual world more than real. Recent estimates show that today we can
find one of every four people who is suffering from this dilemma. Not only adults
but even our youth and teenagers are facing this dilemma.
We all use
social media and see tons of mean comments which are directly or indirectly
bullying us but, we all ignore it because those comments may not directly
target us. Not only males but even females are involved in bullying people.
But, we have to understand that cyberbullying can even lead to severe
depressions and even force people to commit suicides.
It’s not
wrong to say in this century that one of the most precious gems that we have is
our data, because today a single data can be a reason for reviling someone’s
history.
People post
so many personal things on their social media without even realizing that it
can be used to bully them. Perhaps posting things are not bad but we have to be
concise of what we are posting.
Many times people ignore the person who is bullying them so that they can stop, at times
it may work but many times when it does not happens we should not be tensed to
inform about it. Because of our patriarchal society many times when people
bully someone especially girls they don’t take any actions against this, which leads Buller's freedom to bully more people. But we have to understand that bullying
others is offensive not taking actions against them.
In our
country India our constitution contains strict laws to punish this crime like
heavy fines, imprisonment.
To prevent
cyber bullying it’s our duty to take strict actions against it, immediately if
someone is bullying us. We should tell about it to our elders and report about
this to the cyber cell. We should never keep quiet if someone is trying to bully us
or someone we know. And we must not try to bully others.
