Internet Violence From Adults Too
We have yet another example of why people should not give information about themselves on the Internet. This time it's not teenagers or children though, but middle-aged men.
Two men were insulting each other in a chat room dedicated to discussing Islam when finally one threatened to find the location of the other and beat him. Fortunately he didn't get the chance, but unfortunately this was because the threatened man decided to attack first with a friend.
Had this man been a little more careful about not revealing his location, he wouldn't have been attacked. I don't know exactly how much information he had said about himself, but the attackers were able to go directly to his house.
This is a good example to teach us all that it's not just children who have to worry. Anything can happen to anyone. All of us should be careful on the Internet.
