Many people are falling victim to Identity theft, Cat-Fishing and Cyber Bullying because we are not fully protected. Teenagers and young adults are the most targeted when it comes to Cyber Bullying. Lately girls have been trapped and kidnapped. This is because our social network practices are not completely safe.

Effects of Cyber Bullting

I know people that experienced cyber bullying at first-hand. My own girlfriend used to cut herself because of depression.Till today she still bears the scars of that experience. A bully no longer means the toughest, strongest guy in class. Nowadays, anyone can be a bully on the internet and that is why parents should monitor the engagement of their children.

How To Identify Cyber Bullying


Repeated hideous behavior and intention to harm. Bullying behavior such as posting rumors about someone, hate speech, threats, sexual remarks and disclosing private personal information.

When a child start avoiding social situations, gets nervous after receiving a text, suddenly hates school and prefers to be alone, It implies they are being bullied. Cyber bullying reduces a child’s self-esteem and even lowers their academic performance.

    Cyberbullying in my opinion will always be a problem and it cannot be fully resolved. Simply because there's always going to be that one person who doesn't care about the victim's feelings. It cannot be resolve but with the do's and don't's that you mentioned it can be managed.

Fees Must Fall

FEES MUST FALL #FeesMustFall is a campaign that was led by students who opposed fee increments which were planned for the year 2016. It began at WITS University and within time, it had spread to other Universities in South Africa. From my point of view, this campaign was a success. The students used social media to their best advantage. They had no advertising budgets to market the campaign and therefor they had to market #FessMustFall themselves. Students from different learning institutions started spreading messages among each other using technology and online digital platforms. They raised awareness on social media and social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, WhatsApp and even shared videos on YouTube. The use of technology and online platforms made it easier for students to reach other students and other targeted audiences. Students used inter alia , carried hand written posters that spread awareness to everyone. The hand written posters ...
