(v). Withdrawal from social situations: The effects of cyberbullying could cause the victim to avoid socializing with their age groups, just because they have no confidence in their capability to control these relationships. Additionally, they do not trust people to accept them the way that they are. Reactions like this may become very damaging to the victim, making them become withdrawn. This withdrawal behavior often leads to emotional challenges and can cause the person to contemplate suicide.
4). The need for innovation/technology that can tackle these issues.
With the rise of cybercrimes and cyberbully on the increase, there is a need for an effective technology or innovation to check these negative trends. The internet is here to stay and not going anywhere, and so are cybercrimes and cyberbullying. The sooner a tool or a technology is created to check these, the better for vulnerable members of the society. This is necessary because the perpetrators of these crimes are getting smarter by the day and targeting an increasing amount of vulnerable people.
