Download or read book Cyberculture written by C D Bell and published by Pink Parrot Publishing. This book was released on 2018-03-17 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hate is everywhere on the internet and it's getting worse. Cybergangs trawl the web for victims to destroy; online lynch mobs get people fired from their jobs; school kids are bullied to death; hackers re-configure web pages to give epileptics seizures, and RIP trolls viciously deface Facebook memorial pages set up to honour dead teenagers. How has it come to this? The internet was never meant to be a playground for bullies, thugs, and psychopaths. In fact, its original purpose was to exchange raw data between researchers. Over the years, it evolved to allow information sharing among the masses, but its democratic ethos also invited the darker side of human nature to the online table, with devastating consequences. It's so bad now that any one of us can become the target of an online tormentor, bully, or stalker. And it's not as if we have to do anything dire to incur the internet's wrath. Some have simply posted ill-conceived jokes that the cybermob deliberately misinterpreted and others have given well-intentioned opinions for which they were vilified mercilessly. So what, if anything, can we do to protect ourselves from trolls, bullies, cybermobs and stalkers before cyberspace becomes a no-go zone? Cyberculture answers these questions and more and offers practical and innovative suggestions to help us stay safe online. It delves into the crucial differences between the different types of internet menace and why they each must be managed differently. Via case studies and recent research, Cyberculture reveals the shocking effect trolling, cybershaming, and cyberstalking has on its victims and perpetrators as well as what law enforcement and governments are doing-and not doing-to curb the hostility. Whether you're online for business, education, or pleasure, Cyberculture will give you the knowledge and skills to navigate, and possibly help redeem, an increasingly hostile and unforgiving internet.
Download or read book This Is Why We Can t Have Nice Things written by Whitney Phillips and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2015-02-27 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Internet trolls live to upset as many people as possible, using all the technical and psychological tools at their disposal. They gleefully whip the media into a frenzy over a fake teen drug crisis; they post offensive messages on Facebook memorial pages, traumatizing grief-stricken friends and family; they use unabashedly racist language and images. They take pleasure in ruining a complete stranger's day and find amusement in their victim's anguish. In short, trolling is the obstacle to a kinder, gentler Internet. To quote a famous Internet meme, trolling is why we can't have nice things online. Or at least that's what we have been led to believe. In this provocative book, Whitney Phillips argues that trolling, widely condemned as obscene and deviant, actually fits comfortably within the contemporary media landscape. Trolling may be obscene, but, Phillips argues, it isn't all that deviant. Trolls' actions are born of and fueled by culturally sanctioned impulses -- which are just as damaging as the trolls' most disruptive behaviors. Phillips describes, for example, the relationship between trolling and sensationalist corporate media -- pointing out that for trolls, exploitation is a leisure activity; for media, it's a business strategy. She shows how trolls, "the grimacing poster children for a socially networked world," align with social media. And she documents how trolls, in addition to parroting media tropes, also offer a grotesque pantomime of dominant cultural tropes, including gendered notions of dominance and success and an ideology of entitlement. We don't just have a trolling problem, Phillips argues; we have a culture problem. This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things isn't only about trolls; it's about a culture in which trolls thrive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of thirteen new essays is the first to examine, from a range of disciplinary perspectives, how the new technologies and global reach of the Internet are changing the theory and practice of free speech. The rapid expansion of online communication, as well as the changing roles of government and private organizations in monitoring and regulating the digital world, give rise to new questions, including: How do philosophical defenses of the right to freedom of expression, developed in the age of the town square and the printing press, apply in the digital age? Should search engines be covered by free speech principles? How should international conflicts over online speech regulations be resolved? Is there a right to be forgotten that is at odds with the right to free speech? How has the Internet facilitated new speech-based harms such as cyber-stalking, twitter-trolling, and revenge porn, and how should these harms be addressed? The contributors to this groundbreaking volume include philosophers, legal theorists, political scientists, communications scholars, public policy makers, and activists.

Download or read book Cybercrime written by Susan W. Brenner and published by . This book was released on 2012-07-23 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Russia, there are people who earn their living trading in personal information belonging to American citizens. They maintain websites where one can buy names, addresses, and Social Security and credit card numbers. Cybercrime flourishes? Both transnationally and within our own borders. It is time to arm ourselves with the information we need to remain safe. Cybercrime: Criminal Threats from Cyberspace is intended to explain two things: what cybercrime is and why the average citizen should care about it. To accomplish that task, the book offers an overview of cybercrime and an in-depth discussion of the legal and policy issues surrounding it. Enhancing her narrative with real-life stories, author Susan W. Brenner traces the rise of cybercrime from mainframe computer hacking in the 1950s to the organized, professional, and often transnational cybercrime that has become the norm in the 21st century. She explains the many different types of computer-facilitated crime, including identity theft, stalking, extortion, and the use of viruses and worms to damage computers, and outlines and analyzes the challenges cybercrime poses for law enforcement officers at the national and international levels. Finally, she considers the inherent tension between improving law enforcement`s ability to pursue cybercriminals and protecting the privacy of U.S. citizens.
