  1. The internet has changed communication in many ways as in people use it to say things that they may not say in person to one another. Things such as admitting certain feelings that they might not have the courage to say in person.


  1. Immediacy can affect our online identity by making it easy to realize how fast something can get out into the world. Along with the consequence of trying to delete it knowing that whatever was posted could have been copied in just a few seconds by someone unknown.This immediacy can affect a person in real life by having something that got loose from their hands on the internet and it can create conversation outside of the internet. Permanence can affect your online identity by letting a person post something and then afterwards having them realize that what was posted can nevern be deleted. Having it reposted can affect a person’s outside life also.


3. One way that a person could actively manage and protect their identity is by downloading an app that will help their identity from getting discovered. Another way is by not putting your real information out on the internet in the first place.


4. Yes i think the internet has rules. For example, if someone had posted something like pornography, they would immediately get locked in jail for participating while knowing it was against the law.


5. Cyberbullying is when a person is getting bullied by any resource online.


6. One kind of cyberbullying is called sexual harassment. Sexual harassment is a type of bullying because it is making a person feel uncomfortable online due to what one’s actions are towards them. Another type of cyberbullying is false reports. False reports may be seen as cyber bullying because of the outcome that it may have on other people when being used.


7. My advice to victims of being bullied is to never fight back unless it’s physical. Otherwise it’s not worth listening to. My advice to bystanders of bullying is to try and stand up for the victim because even if u try and stay as far away as possible from the commotion, it could make its way to you. And at that time, you would want someone to stick up for you the same way you did not for them.


8. 1- Watch what you post before you post it.
   2- Never give in your real information.

   3- Do not cyberbully others in any way.

   4- Look for scam artists and do not fall for their cons.

   5- Do not answer text messages from random strangers
