Co-funded by the European UnionNowadays, chat is a frequently used means of communication. It makes it possible to dive into a virtual world without face or voice and to meet other people anonymously. There are various chat rooms for immediate interchange with like-minded people. Some users abuse the anonymity of the internet, though, and breach rules and fail to behave themselves in chats. Particularly children are exposed to risks that they and their parents are sometimes not aware of.
