An Update to the Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA) « Thumann Resources

Lisa thuman blogged about the recent changes to the Children Internet Protection Act (CIPA) -- to those people who have rejected social networking and chats -- you're required to "educate minors on appropriate online safety including cyberbulling and interacting with others on social networking sites and in chat rooms."

How are you going to do this without using safe alternatives and then coach them on it? This is REQUIRED in the US if you get erate funds.

Get out there and get busy -- time for pushback. Lisa Thuman's article on this is an excellent read.

FOXNews.com - Cyberbullying: Parents, Tech Companies Join Forces to Keep Kids Safe - Science News | Science & Technology | Technology News

Excellent article on cyberbullying and an example of a girl who was harrassed online and killed herself. This sort of thing is tragic and we should consider what we think aboutinternet harrassment penalties, particularly against children.

There are mention of several websites including one I'd never heard of called CyberBully Alert.

  • An ex-friend’s mother faces charges in federal court as a result, and Missouri has made Internet harassment a crime.
  • Cyberbullies often commandeer e-mail accounts and social-networking profiles, attacking kids while pretending to be someone they trust, like a best friend. They use cell phones and the Web to spread embarrassing and cruel material, and they can harass their victims well beyond the schoolyard -- even when they're "safe" at home.

Cyber Bullying Alert | CyberBullying Prevention Software | Internet Harassment

New software that allows children to document and report harmful harrassment online. I would love to test this tool, I find it very interesting. I think this kind of thing is good, but never replaces a parent talking to a child.

However, if there is nothing that "can be done" because local laws and others have no method of dealing with it, then I don't know if it will breed frustration.

I think every computer should have an easy way to grab screenshots like my fireshot program in firefox. I think this should be part of every web browser.
