Online Safety Is The New B.R.A.V.E.R.Y!

 

A petite blond haired blue eyed Ohio high school girl committed suicide after a nude photo of herself she sent to her boyfriend was distributed around the school! Disheartening right?.... In todayś generation,it's prevalent to understand the fact that our online safety matters the most and we never know what could possibly happen if we are not safe online! 

Cutting to the chase and talking in simpler terms,imagine that you are online and you come across something that makes you feel uncomfortable or worried. Maybe a friend from your school is being bullied and you don't know what to do.Or maybe,someoneś messages go,from friendly to threatening.There are end number  risks of staying online.Exposure to inappropriate material,physical molestation,harassment can be considered as the most common ones.

After being aware with the risks,you might be wondering that how you should be safe now? Don´t you worry,even the most basic measures taken by you could ensure your own safety.Turn on the privacy settings and enable two step verification of the applications you use,keep your personal information with yourself,choose strong passwords and there's so much you can do but even the most basic measures taken by you could ensure your own safety! In cases of blackmailing and harassment,you may contact and report your nearest police station and cyber authorities. 

All in all,the internet is powerful and useful,but you shouldn't drive without buckling your seatbelt or ride a bike without a helmet.You shouldn't venture online without taking some basic precautions! After all your safety is in your hands,so join with me for the #staysafeonline movement and share this blog to all your loved ones! Thank you.
