CyberBullying.. what is it?
The Internet and mobile technology now allows us to be contacted at any time no matter where we are, even if it is in comfort and safety of our own homes. Some users of the Internet are abusing the fantastic facilities it offers the world and are causing distress to 1000's of people across the world. BullyDB can help stop this.
What is the purpose of BullyDB?
BullyDB is an online database of CyberBullies and Internet abusers that allows you to check an email address, chat alias, profile name, account names. Using this service you can check to see if someone attempting to contact you is a cyber bully who could cause you distress and has done to others in the past.
For example, when someone adds you to an instant
messenger or social networking website and you are not sure who they
are... check our database to see if we have a record of the email
address or 'screen name' being used by the person. If we do have a
record of the bully, it is advisable to stay away from them as they will
have been reported for causing distress to innocent Internet users like
you.
If you have been a victim of bullying online or are bullied in real-life, please add the internet details of the person doing this to you and we can help build a database to stop others suffering in the same way.
If someone you don't know sends you an email, adds you to an instant messenger, tells you to visit a website, adds you to a social networking website.... CHECK!
The service is anonymous, requires no signup or registration
and is FREE to use.
BullyDB does not store names of CyberBullies, the service is used to report and check for Internet aliases that CyberBullies use to contact people on the Internet. |
