Cyberbullying – means that people use technology to harm or harass other people such as: mean text messages or emails,  posted on social networking sites, or embarrassing pictures, videos, websites, or fake profiles.

 Effects of Cyberbullying:

Cell phones and computers themselves are not to blame for cyberbullying. Social media sites can be used for positive activities, like connecting kids with friends and family, helping students with school, and for entertainment. But these tools can also be used to hurt other people. Whether done in person or through technology, the effects of bullying are similar.
