New technologies have become integral to the lives of teens and young people in today’s society. Although the internet provides a huge opportunity for teens to expand their horizons by learning new things online, the risks that are accompanied by unsafe internet usage might overshadow these benefits. Teens can be quite naive about the potential safety and issues related to giving away their private information which can be very harmful to their future.

The Internet has become a blessing for the people of the world. It has created unlimited scopes to make life easier. With the help of Internet modern life has become easy and people of the world can easily communicate with each other.

The quality of life of the people have improved a lot because of the internet, but everything has its harmful aspect too. The dark side of the internet is causing many problems in human life. Accessing to any kind of information is easy through the internet, hence getting access to harmful information becomes easier as well. Worldwide internet safety has become a concern. Children are becoming one of the prime victims of this risk. For the past decade, it is seen that there are people on the Internet who are called digital publishers, who are sitting in their homes to catch internet users in new ways. In such an unsafe and risky environment, students at school and college must stay safe on the internet and know the rules of the prevention of these online masks to keep themselves safe.
