Digital communication is exchanging information through digital devices and networks such as email, instant messaging, social media, and video conferencing. You are protected under the Harmful Digital Communications Act (HDCA) that deals with harmful digital communications.
If you are being bullied online and feel that your safety or the safety of someone else is at risk, you should report it to the police. If your immediate safety is not at risk, you can report it to Netsafe - the authorised agency for people to go to if they have experienced cyber bullying.
If NetSafe is not able to resolve the problem, they might advise you to take the case to the District Court. NetSafe will provide you with a ‘NetSafe Summary’ to give the court as evidence that you went to them first.

… View moreFinancial Markets Authority are warning the community about a new scam where scammers are hacking social media accounts in order to pretend to be a friend and loved one. When impersonating, they use special codes and sophisticated software to manipulate the target's cryptocurrency wallets
How to avoid scams involving hacked social media accounts:
- When approached by your family or friends on social media talking about investment opportunities, be wary.
- Consider contacting the loved one by other means toverify their identity, such as by phone.
- Be careful when anyone or any platform requires advance payments to withdraw funds.

The Neighbourly team has been diving into a big question: should our curiosity take us up into space or down into the ocean?
It’s wild to think that more people have walked on the Moon than have reached the deepest point of the sea. Why is that?
