Side effect of the new technology



     With an invention of filming, people nowadays are capable to have access to the fresh news around the world just by clicking a certain buttons on the keyboard. The diverse development of this medium later was applied on reporting people's privacy like paparazzi toward celebrities. Many people were affected seriously. Under the absent of the restrictions from the Government, this trend was further developed as a way of bullying.
     In Hong Kong, this culture was popularly used as a way of punishments. Celebrities no longer are the only victims. As long as there is a potential to draw other's attentions, there will be victims with their private pictures or videos posted online. This behavior although is morally wrong, this culture unexpectedly altered people's behavior in a better way. It is probably because the bullying, by posting the issues online, indeed works as a judgment under majority's value and morality standard. Without a good reason or excuse, people would rather do someone favor others instead of running a risk to do someone against the majority's standard becoming the biggest jerk in the history. With a limitation of right for the government to control this behavior, perhaps, cyber bullying might become a neo-method of keeping people to behave right instead of police.
