Cyber Moral Anomie and its Moral Solution

This paper intends to analyze moral misconduct on the Internet, especially on Twitter. As one of the top 10 most visited websites, Twitter has a high impact on a global scale. Twitter is a microblogging and social networking service on which users post and interact with messages known as "tweets." However, every coin has two sides, and the Twitter users are both publishers and receivers of information at the same time, a factor that brings some negative consequences. Recent years have seen numerous immoral aspects on Twitter such as false information, cyber-violence, racial discrimination, personal information disclosure, and so on.

Based on that examination, the paper proposes causes of network anomie and explores measures to solve network anomie
