What is Cyberbullying?

Cyberbullying is an aggressive, deliberate act of online bullying which occurs frequently and repeatedly using electronic hardware and digital mediums, usually with a computer or mobile device via social media.

Because of the anonymous nature of this type of bullying, the targets of cyberbullying usually do not know who the bully is or why they are being bullied. It also occurs 24/7 meaning there is no relief for the target of cyberbullying.

Social media is the most common way cyberbullying occurs and media bullying (harrassment by various news media networks) is also a big problem. Cyberbullies use texts, emails, blogs, chat rooms, online forums, social networking sites, direct messages and online gaming platforms.
