2. Know where to find help: understand how to report to service providers and use blocking and
deleting tools. If something happens that upsets you online, it’s never too late to tell someone.
3. Don’t give in to pressure: if you lose your inhibitions you've lost control; once you’ve pressed

4. Respect the law: use reliable services and know how to legally access the music, film and TV you
want.
5. Acknowledge your sources: use trustworthy content and remember to give credit when using
others’ work/ideas.
