Internet Survival Guide

Title Slide

The internet has changed communication because we can talk to people around the world now in no time. An example of this is skype.

Immediacy is when there are pictures being posted constantly over and over and it affects our offline and online identities because it’s constantly something to see on the internet and it makes people feel as if they have to see what the current thing on the internet is. Permanence is when u post something on the internet and it stays there forever and it affects our offline and online identities because if we try to apply for a job and the employer looks us up he can find something that you posted and he might think that you're not qualified for the job. Lack of Control is when u post something and someone takes that picture and does stuff with it and that affects our online and offline identities because someone can make a fake account with our pictures and gives us a bad name.

The internet has rules but people just bypass those rules most of the time. An example is when people make a google account and they make up a fake birthday because you need to be 18 and over.

Cyber bullying is when you harass a person online.

Two kinds of cyber bullying are trolling and outing. Trolling is when u annoy a person for no reason at all and outing is when u post someone's personal information online.

The advice I would give victims is, it´s not your fault that you are being bullied just ignore those people and don't worry about them because they're just taking their anger out on you. My advice for bullies is treat people the way you would want to be treated and respect everyone because you wouldn't want to be bullied.

My top 5 tips are:1. Be aware of everyone you meet on the internet. 2. Don´t go on websites that are harmful and might have viruses. 3. Never post your personal information online. 4. Never meet someone in person that you just meet online. 5. Don't open emails that look sketchy.
