tackle these issues. There are certain novel crimes that spread through social media platforms. Various types of

cyber

violation

such

as frauds, online money laundering and certain forms of malware which intend to steal a user’s private data are on the rise now. Because of the anonymity offered by the platform social media has become the paradise of hate mongers. They target other users and hurl abuses at them sitting behind their screen.

This

is nothing but cyberbullying. Teenagers are the most vulnerable targets of the

internet

. Nowadays, adult content which can be really harmful to them is easily available on the

internet

However

, these issues can be solved easily by implementing strict laws which intend to penalize the culprit. Many new users are not aware of the rules made by the government for these problems.

Hence

the government should run some kind of awareness sessions to ensure that people are aware of

cyber

laws and their right to privacy and protection.

For instance

, the Nigerian government in the year 2017 ran a successful campaign about

cyber

threats

such

as viruses and malware.

This

led to a dramatic reduction in data breaches.

Also

educating the young ones from an early age can be beneficial in stopping these crimes. Parents should

monitor the websites that are being used by their children and should implement certain firewalls to prevent their exposure to certain sensitive websites. To sum up, the

as frauds, or scams. It

also

puts our privacy at risk. Even so, in my opinion, the impact of the

internet

on our lives is largely positive. As for the risks, there are several ways to mitigate them.
