INTERNET ETIQUETTE (NETIQUETTE)

AND
TEN COMMANDMENTS OF COMPUTER ETHICS
Ten Rules of Netiquette
Netiquette is a set of rules for behaving properly online. These rules should be followed and remembered
every time by everyone who goes online.
Rule No. 1: Remember the Human
· You need to remember that you are talking to a real person when you are online. Ask yourself when sending
and/or posting: Would I say this to the person’s face? If not, do not send it or post it or chat about it. Always ask
permission before posting anything about someone on the Web.
Rule No.2: Adhere to the same standards online that you follow in real life
· You need to behave the same way online that you do in real life. You need to remember that you can get caught
doing things you should not be doing online just like you can in real life. You are still talking to a real person with feelings
even though you can’t see them.
Rule no. 3: Know where you are in cyberspace.
· Always take a look around when you enter a new domain when surfing the web. Get a sense of what the
discussion group is about before you join it. Be the better person. If someone is being rude in cyber space, do not make
it worse.
Rule no.4: Respect other people’s time and bandwidth.
· Remember people have other things to do besides you. You are not the center of their world. Keep your post
and s to a minimum by saying what you want to say. Use the subject line so the recipient knows what the is about. If
you want a response or action put it in the subject line. Double –check the list of people to whom you are forwarding a
message to make sure no one is on it who shouldn’t be.
Rule No. 5: Make yourself look good online.
· Remember to always check your spelling and grammar before posting. Always know what you are talking about
and make sense saying it. Be polite and pleasant to everyone.
Rule no. 6: Share expert knowledge
· Ask questions online. Share what you know online. Post the answers to your questions online because someone
may have the same question you do.
Rule No.7: Help keep flame wars under control
· “Flaming" is what people do when they express a strongly held opinion without holding back any emotion.
Netiquette does not forbid flaming. Netiquette does, however, forbid people who are flaming to hurt discussion groups
by putting the group down.
Rule No. 8: Respect other people’s privacy
· Do not read other people’s mail without their permission. Going through other people’s things could cost you
your job or you could even go to jail. Not respecting other people’s privacy is bad Netiquette.
Rule No.9: Don’t abuse your power.
· Do not take advantage of other people just because you have more knowledge or power than them. Treat others
as you would want them to treat you if the roles were reversed.
Rule No. 10: Be forgiving of other people’s mistakes.
· Do not point out mistakes to people online. Remember that you were once the new kid on the block. You still
need to have good manners even though you are online and cannot see the person face to face.
