The Internet is a strange place. It's an awesome place that's filled with all kinds of great entertainment, useful knowledge, and cat pictures, but the Internet has a darker side, too.

Ah, the vasty, vasty deep....be sure you seen all the Pirates of the Carribean movies before you go down there....I recommend an extremely fortified submersible and a round-trip ticket purchased before hand....don't expect to hear from anyone, no one is going to answer you....but you can use 'sonar' and 'ultrasound' , who knows, maybe next trip??? As always, IRL and VR, nothing is as it seems:)

Sensationalist fear-mongering... from the "just say no" brigade...

:) Well, they are certainly the 'hiding in the weeds' brigade, anyhow, not exactly your up-front bunch, I'd just call them spies and lurkers

New Zealand makes cyberbullying a crime

New Zealand makes cyberbullying a crime | iGeneration - 21st Century Education (Pedagogy & Digital Innovation) | Scoop.it
You can go to jail for up to two years if you're found guilty of cyberbullying in New Zealand.

Can I share this to my social network?

New Zealand passed a law that could potentially cause someone to go to jail for up to two years if they are found guilty of their crimes. Cyber bullying is now a crime in New Zealand, any racist, sexist, or discrimination towards their religion or disabilities may result in jail time. Social media sites such as, Twitter and Facebook did not do their job of dealing with the complaints and any displays of cyber bullying. So, the government in New Zealand hired a new online agency to look over and deal with any reports or complaints made to the social media site.



R-Yes, the source's status suggests that it is a reliable site to retrieve information from. This article was posted by an individual that is not connected to any large companies. The writer of this article,Daniel Cooper, wrote this piece to inform the public on news in other countries to maybe compare it to other selves. This feature is seen as an informative essay, it was written to educate the public and make them aware of current events around the world.
A-No, the publisher did not experience cyber bullying in New Zealand nor did he experience the consequences. So, therefore ,trusting his observations and conclusions completely may be difficult. But, this writer has published multiple articles on current events ,for example; in China. He writes about different topics, for example , transportation and new creations or ways to commute in places around the world.
V-No, the source has nothing to gain or lose if I believe the information they are putting out there. Daniel Cooper does not work for any big name companies or any government affiliated corporations. He is a senior editor for "Engadget" and plays/writes about technology and games. Cyber bullying is under the topic of technology and how we abuse it. But, I do not see how he can gain or lose anything from me believing that cyber bullying is now a crime in New Zealand. 
E-No, I do not believe that the situation requires the source to have specialized knowledge. This article is not written in a biased way, it was written for the sole purpose of informing the people and warning them. No, this source does not have any specialized knowledge, but it is possible that Daniel got his information from someone that possesses that knowledge. 
N-No, I do not note any bias. In the text, the editor simply briefs the social media community about New Zealand's new bill and what it entails. I would describe this story as a neutral and educational one. This article was written to display how the use of technology and how social media is getting stricter due to its effects on people and their actions.

Interesting. Should Australia follow suit?
