The cyber-victim's escape could be not turning on the conmputer/visiting social media sites.

While I do agree that the cyber-victim could escape by not turning on the computer or visiting social media sites, we have to look at how that is victim-blaming. Sure, they could stop going on FB, MS or whatever but, why should they have to because someone else is acting like an a-hole. I'm not talking about going on a forum like GC. I'm talking about FB (which seems to be a major part of everyone's form of communication these days-like texting). Why should someone else suffer because they are being harassed? That's like saying a kid who gets bullied at school could just quit school, switch schools, or wait for college. Why should it have to be that way?
I do see what you were saying and I know that's not how you meant it.
