The five most serious violations that people commit online I think are Faking your identity, Bullying and Trolling, Sharing Passwords, Addresses or photos of others, Illegal Internet searches and collecting information about children. The reason faking your identity is bad because people do that to steal people’s money or commit crimes which hold the persons who identity they stole to be held accountable it can easily destroy someone’s life and it is hard to fix. Bullying and Trolling is something that is pretty common online now and it can be very dangerous because people have been known to commit suicide because of it. Collecting information about children is a big one because no one needs to have personal information on children except the parents and children’s information can be used to commit a number of crimes. Illegal searches on the internet is another big one because there is some information that should not be on the internet but is and people should not be trying to find it this ties in with information about children, illegal searches are just bad all the way around. Sharing passwords, addresses and photos of others is bad because that’s someone else’s information and should not be shared and ties into everything else listed here. The article talks about using VPNs and everything to protect yourself from some of this stuff but it’s a two-way street here yes, they can protect innocent people accidently making an incorrect search, but it also protects criminals doing it intentionally.
