IncredibleInternet.com was created with one goal in mind: To help people of all ages cut through the Internet's clutter to improve their everyday lives, while keeping families safe online. Online Safety Because prevention and parental/guardian education help keep children safer online, Qwest created its online safety program in partnership with the NCMEC in 2005. Qwest is now expanding its outreach effort to educate more families about potential risks on the Internet. Cyberbullying More than 90 percent of teenagers in America have daily or frequent computer access. Their digital world includes cell phones, computers and game consoles. Teens build a second existence online. Unfortunately, bullying and anti-social behavior translates from the real world to the web, invading this second existence. Cyberbullying is the use of technology to harass, threaten, embarass or target another person. Virtual Worlds With the rise of the Internet, computer games have evolved into the sprawling world of massively multiplayer online games (MMOs) and virtual worlds, blurring the line between our real and virtual lives.
Identity Theft Did you know that the largest target for identity thieves is young people ages 18-29? Qwest Communications is undertaking an identity theft initiative to educate and shield teenagers from this growing crime before they become part of this age group.
