Question

Which of the following is an example of cyberbullying?

• A. Sending phising links to known friends or aquaintance.
• B. Creating fake profiles of your friends and uploading embarrassing pictures.
• C. Blocking your friends from any communication with you.
• D. Hacking in to your friends system and read his mails

Hint:

Cyberbullying means harassing or shaming a person online.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understand the question.
We must pick the example that is cyberbullying. Cyberbullying means using digital means to harass, embarrass or threaten a person.

Step 2: Recall the concept.
Cyberbullying aims to hurt or humiliate someone on purpose through the internet, social media or messages. Typical acts are mean messages, fake profiles and posting shameful pictures.

Step 3: Check option 1.
Sending phishing links tries to steal data or money by trick. This is phishing, a type of fraud. It is not aimed at humiliating a person. Option 1 is wrong.

Step 4: Check option 2.
Making a fake profile of a friend and uploading embarrassing pictures is done to shame and harass that friend online. This is cyberbullying. Option 2 is correct.

Step 5: Check option 3.
Blocking a friend only stops contact. It is a personal choice and does not harass anyone. Option 3 is wrong.

Step 6: Check option 4.
Hacking into a friend's system and reading mail is unauthorised access, a cyber crime called hacking. It is a privacy breach, not bullying. Option 4 is wrong.

Final Answer:
Fake profiles and embarrassing pictures are cyberbullying. This is option 2. \[ \boxed{\text{Option 2}} \]
