D.Answer the questions
Could you live without the Internet?Do you turn on your computer and check for any massages from your friends?Before you jet off to school, do you find a moment to post a quick comment on Microblog?
Needless to say, the Internet plays a central role in the lives of modem teens,but while it links us to the outside world it can connect us with dangerous threats,as easily as it entertains us.
No one knew this more than the 15-year-old Canadian, Amanda who experienced months of online bullying.
In a video posted on YouTube, Amanda told the story of a stranger from the Internet who tricked her into doing something really embarrassing on webcam . Those photos ended up on multiple web pages and were seen by many of Amanda’s schoolmates. Some of them began making rude comments and spreading rumors online. Amanda was horribly embarrassed and, developed depression and anxiety and even changed.schools. However, some of her new schoolmates found out about the photos and the.nightmare started all over again. At last, on October10, 2012, Amanda took her own life.
We can learn several things from Amanda's sad story. For starters, we should beware that people can easily misrepresent who they are online.
We should think of webcams as a window into our world, so be careful of whom you let in. Always remember that your online behavior can come back to haunt you for years to come. There is no such thing as the delete button in cyberspace.
Last but not least, we should all ask ourselves if we treat others online in the same way we would in person. Every user ID represents a person, so think before you post.
Never forget that the cyberworld is also a real world with real consequences. Be a good cybercitizen and be careful to keep yourself safe.
