Drawback of the advancement

Cyber bullying. A friend’s friend died just a few hours ago. She was pretty, smart, and was always full of life as people would describe her. But nonetheless, she died because she committed suicide. Ironic isn’t it? Poor girl was a victim of cyber bullying. Due to the fact that almost everyone has easy access to the Internet, some abusive ones use this and other related technologies to the disadvantage of other people. Scandal pictures went viral in the internet, people targeting others and posting it online, and hostile actions against others. Cyber bullying is one of the drawbacks of the advancement of technology. Cyber bullying is a crime as it will cause unintended effects like suicide. Something has to be done to prevent this kind of situation. Although it is admittedly difficult to control due to the number of people over the internet and tracing each one of them would be impossible, you would probably need an Interim HR Manager duplicated a million times to handle everyone. I guess it is the initiative of everyone before they would engage themselves in the internet that they should be responsible for all their actions, especially the risks and consequences.
