INTERNET SAFETY
Netiquette Netiquette is the etiquette for the internet, a.k.a
the rules of the internet The basic rule of netiquette is to have respect
and be well mannered on the internet Some rules I would like to include is don’t use
all caps, it can be mistaken as shouting and it is impolite, And to never give your personal info to anyone.
Remember in most Chat rooms you have to agree to the terms and conditions, and you have to follow them.
Flame Wars
•A flame is when somebody sends a e-mail or posts something that is likely to lead to an argument.
•A flame war is when these e-mails keep going back and forth, To avoid a flame war, don’t send these e-mails and if you get one, delete it, and tell an adult.
E-mail safety
Be sure to change your password often, this prevents people from hacking into your account.
A lot of spammers use the quote “remember me?” , don’t be fooled by it, ask an adult if they know who it is and if they don’t delete the e-mail.
Delete all e-mails from people you don’t know
Emoticons
A lot of people, to save time and explanation, use emoticons. Emoticons are a selection of symbols on the keyboard that people use to show feelings such as
, , :P, :D, and ;)
Or they use abbreviations such as
TTYL (talk to you later), G2G (got to go), BRB (be right back) and LOL(laugh out loud)
How can you be safe on the internet?
Don’t put any personal thing
about you on the internet.
Be nice to people on
the internet.
Don’t use bad language
and don’t break laws.
Browsers.
Browsers search the websites of the topic
you type into it.

Safety tips.
Say nice things not bad because
everything you put on the internet can
be found again.
Make sure no one knows your
password so people can’t write
stuff on your e-mail or other stuff
you have.
