Conclusion

The online world or the internet has become a very important part of our lives. Nothing can be done without it. But we humans make it a monster like a Frankenstein monster. If we do not stop, it will destroy the future. Whether it is a man or a woman, this is not a human problem. We lose it every day. Due to lack of funds, it is not possible to produce porn videos from others and sell them on porn sites. Revenge does not mean slandering the family by cutting the nude photos edited by the daughter. Society is for humanity, values ​​and perspectives. If any value or opinion conflicts with any part of society, you need to fix it. Since our constitution itself gives us equal rights to the law, society is equal to everyone, so money, social status, or the power of others is irrelevant. The Ministry of Information Technology is researching new laws, and the Ministry of Interior is taking action against members of law enforcement agencies. Members of our society must fight this crime and make children and teenagers younger. This is possible and one day no woman wants to be a victim of cybercrime.
