A careless comment, an unconsented photo shared, or unverified information spread in seconds… can all leave long-lasting impacts on others. For every NTTUer, cyber civility starts with the way we message, post, and share content every single day.

1. Surf the Web Civilly – Remember the 4 “NOs”
To build a safe and respectful digital environment, every NTTU student should practice the 4 core principles:
-
NO insulting, derogatory, or personal attacks: A joke made “just for fun” can still cause deep emotional hurt. Always respect everyone’s appearance, gender, opinions, and unique differences.
-
NO cyberbullying or harassment: Indecent, sexually suggestive, threatening, or uncomfortable remarks have no place in civilized communication.
-
NO unauthorized posting or sharing of personal information: Photos, private messages, and personal details belong to the individual. Always ask for permission before uploading or sharing.
-
NO sharing of misleading or unverified information: Fact-check your sources before hitting “Share.” Do not let a casual click spread fake news, prejudice, or negativity.
2. Self-Check Questions Before You Post – Comment – Share
Before interacting on any online platform, take a moment to ask yourself:
-
Is this information accurate?
-
Will this content hurt anyone?
-
Have I respected their privacy?
-
If I were the person being mentioned, would I feel respected?
💡 A Message from NTTU:
Cyberspace becomes a true hub for connection and positivity only when we navigate it with awareness, responsibility, and kindness. Civility isn’t just for the classroom — Civility is in every click.
Let’s build a safe, positive, respectful, and civilized NTTU student community — both in real life and online!
