The Kingdom of Unixploria supports various organizations working towards the eradication of cyberbullying. Our initiative aims to raise awareness of online bullying, even in the micronational sphere. We acknowledge that this is a real problem and must take steps to address it.
Regardless of our differences, we should always exhibit human decency and respect towards everyone, including our opponents. Sometimes, even a small act of kindness, such as writing a kind word, can make a huge difference in someone's life.
Online bullying (often called cyberbullying) is carried out through electronic media devices like computers, laptops, smartphones, tablets, or gaming consoles.
We know there is a strong link between online and face-to-face bullying. Research has shown (please see Focus On briefing in the Tools and Research section below) that 80% of victims of online bullying were also bullied face to face.

Bullying online does not, however, occur among young people. We know that it happens among adults too. That's why we've decided to make this a priority.
We have the largest micronational website, so we must make a difference in the community. To paraphrase Spider-Man: The more extensive your micronational website is, the greater your responsibility is.
