Cyber Wellness



Cyber wellness is an important issue that everyone should pay attention to. The internet is an essential tool which is widely used by a lot of people nowadays. This is because the internet makes information easily accessible, allows users to express themselves freely via blogs (blogspot, tumblr, onsugar) and also allows users to make new friends and connect with existing friends via websites such as facebook, friendster, twitter, etc. Now, people not only access the internet with laptops or computers, but also with handphones.


Hence, internet users should also know the importance of cyber wellness and should be informed on how to protect themselves, as well as their laptops or computers from viruses. Internet users should be aware that any information they send or publish online might be open to the public. Therefore, they should be more careful of what they intend to say as others can read it too. As a precaution, one should not say anything that discriminates another gender, race or religion.


Cyber wellness is not only about protecting yourself and your property, it is also about respecting other users and their property. We should follow copyright laws and respect the property of other users by getting their permission before copying the content they have published. Or, at the very least, give credits to the website you got the content from.
