After School
Jul 10, 2017 · 1 min read

Five things we believe can turn everyone into better digital citizens:

  1. Help every user realize there is someone on the other side of their screen.
  2. Activate bystanders. The Ad Council’s #IAmAWitness has helped many of the millions of people who witness online bullying and threats stand up for those who are targeted.
  3. Present clear and enforceable guidelines to users, explaining what is acceptable and what is not.
  4. Increase collaboration between users, companies, and organizations. Digital citizenship requires collaboration.
  5. Understand that the “bully” needs support as well, and help them understand what they are doing and how to turn their actions from negative to positive.
