Weblog assignment#2

I visited the Website Online Rumors as a Problem in South Korea. This article is about the issue of cyberviolence. In South Korea, Kim Myong Jae's ex-girlfreind killed herself by taking poison and the rumors which Kim caused her suicide by some abuse expanded on the Internet rapidly. Of course, though these rumors are not true, Kim was as if flee and suffered some damage, cyberviolence like run over his name,address,photograph,telephone number,argue the punishment of him, dismiss from his job and force to drop out his University. Thus like this, a lot of people are harmed by cyberviolence, some web-site critic disscussed and some group contributed to solve the problem. But, the law to solve the problems is still a long way off from perfection because of so many website's harm and the _expression of different language like Yahoo and Google. Finally, this site expresses cyberviolence of the victim and the responsibility of the website and obstruction to communicate on the Internet.

Today, to use the internet is very useful for peopleand essential in our daily life. But, problems like Kim's situation happens very much and a lot of people can't live a normal life. So, I think cyberviolence is too bad and barbarous because the victim had thier life changed and wounded at great expense. But, the assailants which give the victim cyberviolence don't inform people of their background because they are on the Internet. According to this article, so many bad mouth sites exist that we can't count. So, once the site targets you, you can't escape from it. Because the rumors of the Internet are too rapid. Moreover, the rumors happen before you know the rumors. What is worse, almost all the rumors are greatly exaggerated as you can't believe. However, there are some organizations against cyberviolence. They contribute to help the victim. I hope they increase and help a lot of the victims. Actually, the number of bad websites is at most than them. Also, the difference of the _expression by using foreign languages is a big problem. When you use the website Yahoo and Google, you will feel it. Finally, in my opinion, to use the internet is convenient. But, we must not mistake how to use it. To harm people by cyberviolence is the worst, lowest level action. However, it is a fact that a lot of websites like this do exist. Therefore, what do people have to do? We must pay attention to this and we must protect ourselves. To protect is very difficult for the weak who is the victim. So, we must not participate in bad,cyberviolence sites. If you join the site and insist on the bad words against someone, surely you will experience the same situation. I think that the rumors like cyberviolence, speaking evil of someone are not true. We must not believe it. And we must not take it on trust.
