What is one way that you make online safety a daily habit?

Cyberspace is a HUGE part of our modern world. Seeing as we are the generation of technology, society has never experienced some of the issues that are brought on by media; especially the internet. This question is one that is not often taken into consideration. It is one thing to know your rights on the internet, but it is another to actually understand them. With Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, etc (the "go-to" examples for cyberspace arguments), there are all types of settings that construct a panel of settings that create a safe environment for you. Some focus more on privacy, others on anonymity. Among my peers and younger family members and friends, I try to let them know that people violate their rights to the internet very often; and the key to practicing internet safety is to report others' misconduct to a higher authority, and use them as examples toward your own will.

You cannot just ignore these problems, as they will always be present. Teaching younger people to stay away from it will not solve anything. The internet is meant to be a tool. A tool for creativity, communication, education, practically anything. But just as with any good thing, there are always people that misuse it.
