The article lists several online behaviors that, despite being widespread, that can have significant legal repercussions. Using unlicensed streaming or torrent services, exposing someone else’s personal information, cyberbullying, identity fraud, and searching for illegal content online are the five most significant violations. Because these actions infringe intellectual property, privacy, and potentially criminal law, they are particularly serious. For instance, copyright rules are violated, and content providers are harmed when pirated video is streamed or downloaded. Without permission, sharing someone’s private address or images might result in harassment or physical danger. Mental health issues and, in certain situations, legal action have resulted from cyberbullying and trolling. While looking for very unlawful content, such child exploitation or criminal instructions, might lead to an inquiry and arrest, identity fraud is a serious crime that can leave victims emotionally and financially devastated. In addition to breaking the law, these acts seriously endanger both the offender and the victim of such an act.
