The five most visible violations include identity fraud, cyberbullying, illegal streaming, torrenting, and the unlawful recording of calls. These are severe in nature as they cause harm to individuals or society as a whole. Identity fraud can destroy the finances and reputation of an individual victim, while cyberbullying can cause severe emotional stress or, in worse cases, take a devastating toll on a person’s life. Illegal streaming and torrenting flaunts the creators’ rights and causes large-scale piracy which impacts entire industries. Without the consent of the other party, recording a conversation is one of the many ways of infringing a person’s privacy, and it damages interpersonal and corporate relationships. Each violation has adverse impacts on individuals and the society around them.
