Sumario

Bullying is not new. Cruelty, abuse and public humiliation have always been unfortunate aspects of human life in some form. But all are rapidly intertwining with technology as it evolves, as social media's grip on culture tightens and as the protective boundaries between private selves and public personae seem to dissolve. Privacy issues that were until recently restricted to celebrities now concern the most anonymous among us. The result has been a kind of Information Age vertigo. Sadly, young people are the most deeply impacted. Many parents and educators feel helpless in the face of these developments, caught between encouraging children and young adults to immerse themselves in the many benefits of technological innovation, and trying to protect them from the profound damage this same innovation makes possible. -excerpt from introduction.
