Differences between 'bullying' and 'cyberbullying'
Bullying is not an invention of the Internet, but since publishing tools content have become popular among the cases of bullying have acquired a new dimension.
Social networks have replaced doors toilets in schools with the problem of the abuse or insults come to a wider readership.
"The cyberbullying is often an extension of the bullying. It starts at school and contiue posting a picture on the Internet, which are added comments. The worst thing is that traditionally the harassment was performed by two or three people accompanied by the we call spectators. On the Net, the problem is compounded because they start to engage more people, even many of them do not know the person affected, "said Guillermo Cano, president of Protégeles.

The other big difference, Cánovas, is advertising that is done on the internet where harassment happens to an area public where everyone can see the abuses, or alleged jokes in bad taste, well, if nothing is done, can last for a long time until the web remove that content.
Protégeles says it is very important to report these situations to immediately withdraw from malicious content. In this sense, Protégeles ensures that most Internet companies provide full cooperation in these matters.
