Definition
Netiquette is etiquette on the Internet.
Since the Internet changes rapidly, its
netiquette does too, but it's still usually
based on the Golden Rule. The need
for a sense of netiquette arises mostly
when sending or distributing e-mail,
posting on Usenet groups, or chatting.
To some extent, the practice of
netiquette depends on understanding
how e-mail, the Usenet, chatting, or
other aspects of the Internet actually
work or are practiced. So a little
preliminary observation can help. Poor
netiquette because you're new is one
thing, but such practices
as spam and flaming are another
matter.
Online Safety and Security
The Internet, truly, is a powerful tool.
It can be used to promote your
business, gain new friends, and stay in
touch with the old ones. It is also a
source of entertainment. But like most
things in this world, there is always
“another side of the coin.” The
Internet is one of the most dangerous
places, especially if you do not know
what you are doing.
Internet Threats
1. Malware – stands for malicious software
Types: Virus, Worm, Trojan,
Spyware, Adware
2. Spam – unwanted email mostly from bots or
advertisers. It can be used to send malware.
3. Phishing – Its goal is to acquire sensitive
personal information like passwords and credit
card details.
Think Before You Click
1. Before you post something on the
web, ask these questions to yourself:
Would you want your parents or
grandparents to see it? Would you want
your future boss to see it? Once you post
something on the web, you have no
control of who sees your posts.
2. Your friends depend on you to protect
their reputation online. Talk to your
friends about this serious responsibility.
3. Set your post to “private.” In this way,
search engines will not be able to scan
that post.
4. Avoid using names. Names are easy for
search engines to scan.
5. If you feel that a post can affect you or
other’s reputation, ask the one who posted
it to pull it down or report it as
inappropriate.
Copyright Infringement
If you create something—an idea, an
invention, a form of literary work, or a
research, you have the right of how it
should be used by others. This is called
intellectual property.
