Social networking has developed an opportunity for online predators to conduct hateful behaviours within the virtual world engaging virtual characters and avatars that provide no specification of the person themselves (for example age, sex etc ).

Distributed Denial of Service o Distributed Denial of Service (DoS) attacks are also an effective means to slow down or shut down a website of an organisation representing a hated group (religious, gay and lesbian websites...) o Cyberspace is not simply a medium of direct communication between people who choose to reveal who they are offline.
