3 Questions to Ask Yourself about Digital Disrespect:
1. Would it be okay if this was happening offline? As in, would you walk up to a group of people you barely know and announce that you heard that one of them cheated on their bf at Battle of the Bands with that hot bass player? Then why would you post it online? Here's your chance to be the bigger man or woman. Opt out and call it out when you see it.

3. Isn't it just harmless fun? In the moment, sure—but since online comments can roll way farther than you mean them to, your random comment about someone else's private life could end up blowing their big break someday, when a prospective employer digs up old dirt. So why shovel it in the first place?

Draw Your Line Unhide. If you wouldn't say it to a person's face,
don't say it online or text it.* Disengage. If someone's talking about you,
don't respond—everything you say just fuels the fire. In this case, silence is golden.*
Secure your stuff. Find the privacy settings for all the networks you're part of, and use them. They're there for a reason.*
Save everything. If you're being harassed online, save the messages, posts, or comments so that you can back up requests for blocking or even a protective order (should it come to that).*
Notify a trusted adult if you receive anything that is inappropriate or makes you feel uncomfortable.
