Online Revenge Posts

2.       Category* of Problem/Issue identified in article: Privacy/Online Harassment
3.       Level of problem/issue : National
4.       A potential policy that is being considered to help a problem that individuals face.

5.       This is important to individuals because online harassment is a major problem nowadays that is not having the attention required by the government. There are many individuals affected by this type of harassment due to the fact that social networking and online privacy is not protected by any federal law.


6.      I am fully agreed with these attempts to push this new type of law. From my point of view this is a huge problem in our life times when internet is in full view of everyone. The victims of this type of harassment can be any type of individuals of all ages. This serious problem is because cyber bullying also includes all kinds of photos, messages or websites that cannot be uninstalled or drop, even after having requested. In other words, everything that hangs on the Internet with the intent to harm another person .In these times people take revenge in many ways mostly putting different posts referring to other people. I would argue that having this law help a lot to protect the privacy of all persons in all aspects thus avoiding having more victims of this type of cybernetic attacks.
