520 _aToday almost half of the global population is online and an estimated 3.2 billion people stay connected: falling victims to cybercrimes and cyberbullying; suffering from Internet Addiction and cyber-related disorders; cheated by other online users and haunted by their own past mistakes suddenly posted online. On the Internet every information may become a permanent record, following the users who were not aware of the consequences of their ‘click’ when they shared a photo, posted a text, or filled a form, not knowing who was on the other end. A friend of a cyber-friend may turn into a cyberbully, online love affairs may end in cyberstalking, sharing too much information may lead to cybercrimes, Internet frauds and identity thefts. Very often the recklessness or unawareness of Internet users make them vulnerable to all sorts of cyber abuse. How can we protect ourselves and make cyberspace a safer place? This interdisciplinary volume seeks to explore the practical dimensions of cyber threats and the changes cyber space brought to the social and cultural environment we have known so far.
