The impact of the Internet and Social Media on bullying is very serious.People nowadays have issue's regarding cyber bullying as well.This is posing a new level of threat to the person who are a victim of such incidents only in workplace,school/college etc. With the usage of social media and Inetrnet access one might target that person through these plaforms as well.

Definetly online world has made bullying more perinicious and widespread and it has reached upto a level at which it is directly posing a threat to anybody.

Cyber bullying has acquired that much reach because of our carelessness during the usage of Social media accounts.We post some content which is under the category of privacy,which random person uses to threaten us.There are various other examples as well which are responsible for the widespread of Bullying through online platforms.

No ,I have never been engaged in any such acts because these acts are categorised under criminal acts and a legal action might be taken against the one who is responsible for these acts.
