Cyberbullying is bullying with the use of digital technologies. It can take place on social media, messaging platforms, gaming platforms, and mobile phones. It is a repeated behavior, aimed at scaring, angering, or shaming those who are targeted (https://www.unicef.org/eca/cyberbullying-what-it-and-how-stop-it ).
