One of the negatives about being connected is a phenomenon called Internet shaming. Internet shaming is just one of the ways people show their uglier sides online, to tragic and unfair consequences. It has damaged reputations, hurt feelings, and even driven people to suicide. This resource examines what Internet shaming is, why people do it, and why, in the end, it’s a dangerous practice. It also provides guidance to both those who have been victims of Internet shaming and those who have shamed others.
