Ariz Rev Stat Ann 13 2921 Cyberbullying is
(Ariz. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 13 -2921. ) Cyberbullying is using electronic media to harass threaten or intimidate another person. Arizona law defines harassment as conduct directed at a specific person that would cause a reasonable person to be “seriously alarmed, annoyed or harassed” and that, in fact, does have that effect on the person targeted.
Cyberstalking: the repeated use of electronic communications to harass or frighten someone, for example by sending threatening emails, comments in social media, or other electronic communication.
Save the evidence! If you receive abusive or offensive messages, or images save the evidence or take a screen shot to use in your report to a trusted adult. Report the incident! Tell a trusted adult such as a family member, teacher, school counselor, or School Resource Officer if you receive harassment by online messages, images or texts. Don’t give up! Keep reporting each and every time there is a cyberbullying incident until it stops. Block and Delete! Block e-mail addresses and cell-phone numbers from cyberbullies; delete their contact from social media or other websites where they are targeting you.
Get Help! Talk to a parent, teacher, counselor, Resource Officer, coach, any trusted adult and let them know how you feel about frightening or upsetting messages and images you receive online from others. Think First! Decide if the image or post you want to pass on could have negative consequences or could be revealing personal information you were not meaning to share. Keep it Private! Only share personal information such as names, addresses, phone numbers, passwords, credit card numbers, etc. with permission from your parents or guardians. Use Safety Features! Turn-on safety features and privacy settings; routinely have them checked and updated.
Protect your Identity! Use a pretend image such as an avatar, a secret screen name, an unfamiliar user ID, something that others would not easily recognize or guess as you. Change it! Change your passwords if you feel others may have seen you use it or you think they may guess it; change it if you have shared it with past relationships. Google your Name! Monitor where your name appears online. If you find any unauthorized information, report to the web service and your parents. Advocate for Online Freedom! Speak out against inappropriate behavior online, by refusing to join in or pass on inappropriate messages or images; Use the ‘I am a witness” emoji: http: //iwitnessbullying. org
