Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Harassment can be defined as continued communication or interaction with someone with the goal of intimidating, upsetting, or otherwise emotionally impacting the recipient. It is communication or interaction with no other legitimate purpose. Threats can be defined as communicated warnings of some imminent negative event, injury, or other harm. Often the person communicating the warning implies that they will cause the injury, or harm. Harassing or threatening somebody via email or some other electronic means has also been referred to as cyberstalking. Cyberstalking has been defined as, the repeated use of the internet, email, or related digital electronic communication devices to annoy, alarm, or threaten a specific individual or group of individuals (Ovidio & Doyle, 2003). Cyberstalking has also been defined by the National Center for Victims of Crime (NCVC) as threatening behavior or unwanted advances directed at another using the Internet and other forms of online and computer communications (NCVC, 2004).
