I mean, if you have problems in real life and want to escape in the intrnet but get even more problems there, why shouldn't you start thinking of changing yourself instead of whining about the world.
Once, a friend of mine saw a password of a classmate noone really likes because he is a suck-up and an over all annoying person. He told it me, I told it another friend, he told it another friend ...
Some days later someone actually logged in his account for a site like facebook and changed everything like his avatar and wrote some "funny" shit all over the place. The account got banned in a few minutes and everyone had a good laugh, until that guy contacted his mother, our teacher and the police. True story, some months later a police man came to our school to tell us something about cyber bullying for two hours.
Noone would have taken that opportunity if that guy wasn't such an idiot.
There's so much with your statement that I disagree with.
1. Your statement that cyber-bullying isn't the problem, it's the bullied person's problem is comparable to saying rape isn't the problem, the people getting raped are the problem. It is ALWAYS the perpetrator's fault, therefore the problem is ALWAYS the perpetrator.
2. You don't need to have a problem to get picked on. Perfectly normal people can get picked on just because the person picking on them doesn't like them, or is envious of them.
3. He's an idiot for reporting a breach of privacy? He has every right to report the fact that YOU, meaning everybody who spread his password around, were total asswipes. You wouldn't hesitate to report somebody breaking into your locker, even if nothing was stolen, because your privacy had just been violated. If some incosiderate prick fucks around with your private information, you have every reason possible to report the issue. Just because he's annoying doesn't warrant abusive action.

Dear god! Someone must help these poor children who got insulted on the Internet! Or gave away their password because they're careless little morons! Someone must take action, and that someone must be the mighty Internet Police!
Anyone who takes anything said on the Internet by anonymous users seriously is mentally inadequate. The topic is purely based on morals and opinions, this is mine.

Cyber bullying and fighting on the internet is in my opinion totally POINTLESS. proves the person making threats are pussy's i say make a threat and come through with it on or off the internet,
But seriously the shit needs to stop (witch it wont) too many suicides over stupid trolls talking shit, I have seen it on fb and everything, People that seriously get offended over the internet by someone they dont know its useless and there's no point to it. But if its someone you know irl then all good. Box it out with fist's face to face. fuck talking shit out too. Anyone who fights on the net is a coward. but its fun trolling.

That pretty much sums it up.
Yes, there is breach of privacy, then there is "cyber-bullying". One is in the physical world, the other is on the internet. Big difference, different consequences. Having someone come in and give a talk about it does nothing.
Not much else to say since it's been said already so I'll just leave it where it is.
