How does cyber technology impact interactions between offenders and victims?

The words offender and victims have changed a lot since the rise of modern technology. Since the rise of technology people have committed more crimes than they do in real life. One example of this revolution is stalking. Before it would have been harder to find someone because you would have to track them down and, in a way, find out what their schedule was like. But few people post their daily lives on social media for the entire world to see. The internet has made it easier to access information that may have not been available or private before. Many people now do not find a problem in posting this information on social media Apps. So, this means that people must be concise of what they post online because they have no real idea of who could be looking for information on them. However, if someone were to obsess over someone like this online then they could be subject to punishment. Just because someone is doing something illegal online does not mean that they are not committing a crime and can get away with it. 

How should we approach the development of cyber-policy and -infrastructure given the “short arm” of predictive knowledge?

Since the cybersecurity industry changes so much and at such a rapid rate, we cannot really predict what the future may hold. We should try to look so far ahead but instead look at what may change between now and tomorrow. Essentially, we should only take one day at a time. The cyber policies that we have in place today are very important because they regulate what happens in an online world and translate them into real life. They are here to protect the well-being of many individuals that use technology daily. The short arm of cyber policies is important because they allow for these policies to change that may happen tomorrow or three years from now. That is why people in charge of these policies need to keep up with the new so they can evolve these policies to fit the new threats that appear even day.
