This article analyzes British and French governmental and non-governmental organizations’ approaches to cyberharassment on their prevention campaign websites. First, we discuss and elaborate on Dan Olweus’ approach in relation to the conceptualization of “cyber-harassment” as deviance. Subsequently, a comparative discourse analysis of the prevention websites was conducted to identify the ways through which the public is informed about cyber-harassment as deviance. Finally, we examine the limitations of the preventive measures undertaken and propose some alternative solutions.
