Craig Kobia has held numerous anti-porn conferences across Eastern Idaho. But to engage everybody on the subject is a little tricky. That’s where a Volkswagen-limousine comes in handy.

West Virginia vs. Cyberbullies

KenS — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 17:01:34 +0000

Another state is proactively fighting cyberbullying: West Virginia’s Senate passed a bill making it illegal to send obscene or harassing electronic communication to others. According to WHSV, the bill passed the Senate unanimously and now heads back to the House, as the Senate made one minor change. Supporters are ruling out cries of 1st Amendment breaching because the bill exempts comments that are simple criticisms.

While schools are battling to keep cyberbullying out of their systems, parents can fight to eliminate it altogether by monitoring their child’s Internet activity at home. If you use PC Pandora 6.0, you will see first hand if your child is a victim – or if they happen to be the bully! If the latter is the case, you need to intervene and stop it before the schools and law enforcement do!

I have a good story today that highlights the idea that A) you need to be careful what you write on MySpace because you never know how someone else is going to interpret it (and react) and B) the world really needs to calm down and remember that the Internet is populated by idiots.

A reminder to parents with kids on social networks: you need to monitor your child as they interact and grow up online. Fortunately, PC Pandora 6.0 monitoring software sees all. There won’t be any secret accounts or secret friends or cyberbullying when you use PC Pandora…
