Cybercrimes committed against persons include various crimes like transmission of child-pornography, harassment of any one with the use of a computer such as e-mail. The trafficking, distribution, posting, and dissemination of obscene material including pornography and indecent exposure, constitutes one of the most important Cybercrimes known today. The potential harm of such a crime to humanity can hardly be amplified. This is one Cybercrime which threatens to undermine the growth of the younger generation as also leave irreparable scars and injury on the younger generation, if not controlled.

cyber crimes should be taken seriously. Recently in USA a woman forced a teen girl to suicide by provoking her on Internet using social Networking Website just because that girl got more marks than her own daughter but there were no penalties on that woman because of no cyber laws.
