However, to date there is little research comparing offline and online behavior. The virtual world of social media offers young adults the opportunity to deviate from their true selves (Caldwell, 2013).” That said, online interaction is just as harmful as face-to-face interaction. (Drussell) “Through the tools of computers and cell phones, society has moved from face-to-face interaction while performing these activities to activities that do not require in-person interaction with others.” The difference between the two is that it is often more difficult to verify who is essentially causing emotional harm to the victim than the option offered by the Internet of being an anonymous person. There is not the same unspoken rule of common courtesy on the Internet that exists in a face-to-face connection. Therefore, this helps conclude my belief that some people act differently online than they do online
