Exposure to #cyberhate happens in different ways: 🔍 while most come across it unintentionally, a concerning minority of youth actively seek out these harmful interactions. ⚠️ Awareness and guidance are key to fostering safer online experiences. 🌐 #YouthOnline #DigitalSafety

#Cyberhate is as haunting as any Halloween scare, creeping into our online spaces when we least expect it. 👻 Most people encounter it unintentionally during other online activities. Let’s work together to prevent it. A safer internet is no trick, but a treat for everyone! 🎃

Our systematic review also focused on #cyberhate related to weight. 📱⚖️ Only a few studies have investigated it so far, but they show women are at higher risk of being exposed to it and that victimisation is linked to depression, stress, or sleep problems. 😔💤 #weightbias
