-
The first indication as to whether or not a site is credible is in the
domain
-
That line of text at the top of your browser will let you know exactly what kind of site you’re dealing with.
-
-
While it’s a great indicator as to what kind of website you are dealing with, it is not enough to simply believe information because of a certain domain.
-
The next thing you should do is research the author
-
With any information on the Internet you should always try and find the date of publication, as well.
-
Take everything with a grain of salt, and double-check with another website to be sure.

"When you're getting harassed with e-mails, don't reply, and save the e-mails -- if you reply you increase the problem and it sort of encourages the activity to continue,"

-
They used to sit outside their targets' homes -- hiding in cars or bushes -- waiting to follow them.
-
They used to leave hastily-scrawled notes on their windshields before slashing their tires.
-
using modern technology to leave their terrorized victims living in fear.
-
Satellite technology, such as GPS, makes it possible to follow people in real-time from a remote location.
-
The technology is also there for a stalker to monitor a person's computer use, down to a single keystroke, or to get access to their e-mails and personal information.
-
The goal now, Southworth said, is to educate women how to use technology to their advantage, to search out shelters, to log e-mails and to protect their privacy so they're no longer victims.
-
To most stalking victims, being stalked is like being put through a long, slow rape.
-
For gang stalking victims, it’s like a gang rape.
-
. Stalking and harassments are problems that many people especially women, are familiar with in real life. These problems can also occur on the Internet, in what has become know as "cyberstalking" or "online harassment".
-
The online stalking is just as frightening and distressing as off-line stalking, and just as illegal.
-
Cyberstalking and online harassment are also much easier to practice than real life stalking. In cyberspace, a stalker can harass their victim without ever have to leave the comfort of their own home, or have any witnesses to the incidents.
-
Online users are vulnerable to being targeted as cyberstalking victims in three areas.
-
1) Live Chats (AOL, Yahoo, Skype, Messenger) or IRC (Internet Relay Chat): in which a user talks live with other users. This is the most common place for cyberstalking.
2) Message boards, Blogs, Reunion Sites and Newsgroups: a user interacts with others by posting messages, conversing back and forth.
3) Email box: a user has the ability to write anything and even attach files to the email.

CYBERSTALKING PREVENTION TIPS
-
If you are being harassed online by a cyberstalker, the chances are that you are not the first person they have stalked.
-
"Stalking" is a "power" crime, the stalkers has the power to make you suffer and enjoys that power.
-
The more pain and suffering they can cause, the better they feel about themselves.
-
Often, stalkers are mentally unstable, paranoid, delusional, and extremely jealous, and have extremely low self-esteem.
-
Most are anti-social, and to put it in layman's terms, be a "control freak", enjoying manipulating other people.
-
harassment is common enough in live chat on the Internet.
-
1) sexual harassment (or innuendo);
2) a flame war (argument that gets out of hand);
3)users that show their technological power by attacking innocent users, channels or even networks.
-
Stalking is a form of obsession. The difference between a normal cyber harasser and a cyberstalker, is this: harasser moves on to others and forgets you and a stalkers will come back to stalk you another day.
-
The Internet enables the stalker, his powers, in most cases, merely a knowledge of the technology is all required to have the ability to stalk another user.
-
Note that educated, smooth talking, responsible people also can be stalkers, appearing to be a perfect gentleman or lady with perfect manners.
-
The major "clue" to cyberstalking, is when the stalker pushes for information regarding you personal life, private life, or life away from the net.
-

Researchers and psychologists identify three categories of stalking:
-
60% of stalking cases are represented in this category, which includes all previous personal relationships (i.e., husbands/wives,boyfriends/girlfriends, domestic partners)
-
·Simple Obsession Stalking
-
This category is best defined as, “If I can’t have you, nobody will.”
-
-
The goal of the stalker is to establish a personal relationship with the object of his or her obsession - in disregard to the victim’s desires.
-
This category consists of deluded individuals who believe a relationship already exists between themselves and their victim.
-
-
"When women engage in stalking behavior, they are as tenacious and as intrusive as their male counterparts, and are just as likely to threaten or damage property,"

Sanctuary for the Abused: CYBERSTALKING IN THE 21st CENTURY - Part Three on 2009-05-06
-
It's a technology with the noblest of uses
-
stalkers have found a new use for global positioning systems (GPS).
-
-
Four recent cases in the U.S. have shown the dark side of the technology, all of them involving men attaching a GPS-enabled device to their exes' vehicles to aid them in their stalking behaviour.
-
Such gadgets use a constellation of satellites to pinpoint location and, using cellular networks, can send their co-ordinates to wireless handsets or computers.
-
a stalker precise information about the location of their target
-
making it easier to terrorize
-
"I would say so -- technology is almost the greatest gift to a persistent stalker,"
-
stalkers are the type of people who will use any means necessary to achieve their goals.
-
With the case of technology, the intelligent, persistent stalker manipulates it to his own advantage.
-
technological means are just another way for an abuser to exert control over a victim.
-
there are going to be situations where technology is used in violent incidents.
-
tech-savvy stalkers are turning to devices such as spyware to monitor their targets' computer use, and putting hidden video cameras to a wide variety of prying-eye uses, including keeping tabs on who an ex might be inviting into the bedroom.
-
"Secret webcams in dorm rooms, upskirt photos and posting photos to the Internet to hurt someone, that's all going to be illegal,"
-
"When caller identification was first introduced, abusers would monitor the caller ID box,"
-
"As technology advances, it's going to be almost impossible for victims to flee and get to safety."
-
"Trust your instincts -- if your ex knows too much about your activities or things you only told a few people, you might be under surveillance,"
-
An even stronger sign is if the stalker follows his target to places the victim has never been before.
-
That was the tip-off for Connie Adams, a Wisconsin woman who in 2002 was stalked by her ex-boyfriend with a real-time GPS tracker.
-
If it's every time you call or e-mail someone your stalker is calling you asking specifics about the conversation you just had, or where you've been, then that's a pretty strong signal.
-
"That's one of the ways they tip their hand: They taunt their victims with information they're not supposed to know."
-
For victims who think someone might be using a GPS unit to follow them, or using a camera to secretly videotape them, as long as the device is transmitting a radio frequency, it can can be detected.
-
The devices that scan for signals can be expensive, but for some, the peace of mind would far outweigh the cost.
-
Southworth's group advises if anything is found, it should be kept, photographed, but not removed from where it is.

Fear Facebook - What people don’t see on 2009-02-18
-
Facebook is a huge personal information database, nothing else.
-
he reality is that often the default options are set to allow the sharing of your profile’s details
-
-
Most people don’t know they have to remove the option in their profile manually.
-
t’s a personal information database people are creating themselves having fun!
-
n most profiles we find pictures, what you like (movies, drinks, interests, music, etc.), your friends, your age, sex, date of birth, marital status, political views, school attending, work place and there’s many more.
-
I can think of million and million of companies or even governments that would be more than happy to get that valuable database.
-
Facebook is a computer software and computer softwares are open to hacking as usual.
-
it can be really nice but just remember that what you put on there can fall into hands you might not want…
