Tof10 Online Harassment Victim Finds Support In Unexpected Place
We're providing the information on this page as a resource for community members who have been identified and targeted for online abuse, harassment, and intimidation. Being a victim of online harassment can feel isolating and relentless, but you are not alone and you are not powerless. With the right steps and support, you can stop the harassment, protect your identity, and start healing. Request support from loved ones and professional contacts, or learn how to provide support as an ally/witness or an employer. While it may be easy to respond with anger or defensiveness, addressing online harassment with empathy can foster understanding, promote healing, and ultimately contribute to a more respectful online environment.
Review our full online harassment and abuse summary to learn more about the data and key takeaways from the survey. Much of law enforcement is still unsure what online harassment is so it could be useful to be prepared to explain concepts such as doxing and trolling and check local laws on online harassment depending on your location. We understand that this is difficult but we are here to support you.
