Abstract

Modern digital life can be characterized by both new possibilities and challenges. However, if we assume that digital life has its own natural course which establishes a balance between threats and promises, human culture always tends to reflect upon new experiences, communication methods and ways of behavior, some of them attract more attention and concern — problematic behavior and crimes in the first place. Some cybercrimes are just a new method to commit the offences already laid down in criminal codes. Cyberbullying and cyberstalking, on the other hand, offer new questions and challenges to courts and legislature. Nevertheless, the problem of cyberbullying and cyberstalking is among the most evident and maybe the least studied, and it is the problem that involves both law and ethics. Our study is an attempt to review the traditional concepts of stalking and bullying, to trace their transitions and to summarize the related problems.
