Episode 1 - Cyberbullying and Harassment

Cyberbullying is a global term that means the harassment of someone by use of electronic media, usually but not always social media. It's been described as "an aggressive, intentional act or behavior that is carried out by a group or an individual, using electronic forms of contact, repeatedly and over time against a victim who cannot easily defend him or herself." (2014 article by Dr Megan Moreno in the American Academy of Pediatrics journal) In this podcast Glen sits down and talks to "Zoe", about her experience with cyberbullying after she broke up with her boyfriend of two years. In Australia cyberbullying is a criminal offence.
