Cyber Safety
A digital footprint is…
Whatever you say on a computer stays there forever you can not change it. It’s like a computer in the sand.
What does it do?
Don’t pass it on. Remind your friends and family not to do it.
Who can see it?
Everyone can see it and people will do silly stuff with it.
Ways to stop it
Have a family account or a friend account.
Share with people you know only.
Don’t trust everything you see on the internet because it could be turned into a virus.Somebody could have put false information, steal details such as: password and bank details and your address.
Don’t trust every sign/website you see because it could be photoshopped to make their eyes bigger and their neck longer to make it perfect. They put heaps of make on to make the models face look completely different.
On line people are able to cyberbully. They can send nasty emails/text messages/tweets on facebook, twitter and/or instagram.
It affects the bully, the victim and their families. The family will feel disappointed or let down. It is bullying if the bully says or does something again and again and again when they have been told to stop multiple times.
What to do if you are the victim:
- say stop it or tell someone
- Don’t keep it going/don’t comment back badly
When it is school time don’t do something on the computer that you have not been told to do such as youtube, music or games. Do the right thing at the right time.
