Marne Levine Quotes

I definitely hope women know that abuse/harassment/blackmail on social media is also a crime, and the police definitely help.

We are not advertising ourselves as a secure platform. It's a communication platform. It's not our job to police the world or Snapchat of jerks.

Now we have so many more social outlets, so many ways to be stalked and bullied. If social media is too much for you to handle, then don't have a Twitter or Facebook account. Just be yourself. Be who you want to be.

I have fun going on Twitter and the Internet. I feel safe and comfortable, and I wish everyone could feel that way.

The Internet is a bastion of negativity, and we get to sit there and voice our cute, little, important opinions.

There's a lot of talk about people being abused on Twitter, women being savagely insulted and degraded. I think, 'Why get into that in the first place?' If I jump into a garbage bin, I can't complain that I've got rubbish all over me.

Fortunately I can say that social media has treated me pretty well. I've been exempt from a lot of the mean comments.

It's the Internet. I'm sure many people know that it's one of the toughest places to be if you're sensitive.

I am a huge advocate for anti-bullying in our youth. What I have seen with the rise of social media is that children are not facing bullying on a playground, they are facing it on their cell phones.

With cyberbullying, one press of a finger on an electronic device can shatter someone's reputation and what they think is their entire life. It's scary.

The No. 1 thing I've seen actually help with online abuse is when the person has a good community or a strong support network that's savvy and that can help them.

Twitter has made some improvements on the site and it's important that you can report people - but when you are getting the level of abuse I was, it's an onerous task reporting each and every person.

With social media now, everybody's faceless, but I assume these kids sending me pictures of myself of Instagram are twelve, thirteen years old.

Well it's very flattering to be on Twitter and have so many followers - but yes, it can be very unforgiving too. It is an invasion of privacy, but the choice is entirely mine.

The number of things that can happen to a child online are just as many as can happen to a child in the playground, only it's more immediate and they have the whole world at their finger tips.

Familiarize yourself with the resources at hand to combat online bullying, and report offenders as often as you need to. Don't hesitate to report and block.

My children aren't allowed on social media.

You know that social media can be a harsh thing, man.

I don't need to be on any micro-blogging site, because people don't think about what they say there. At times, people abuse, and it is too harsh for me to handle.

Social networking sites are an easy way to insult people. People have sent me messages saying that they are praying for me to get injured. Such messages are not nice, because I love playing football: I love playing for my club; I love playing football for Ghana.

Those of us who have feeling, who are sensitive, who can be affected, need a good shield. Footballers are very young and they're exposed. Even at under-15s, players have Twitter and I'm sure they're already getting insults... it's ugly, it sullies society and football.

Instagram is wonderful in so many ways, but it's also something that should be used with respect - for yourself and for other people.

I get bullied a lot on social media, and it's terrible.

I block the trolls.

The Internet and social media can really be life-saving for some kids.
