Hudson Valley, New York (PRWEB) December 06, 2012

As society becomes more technologically advanced, the importance of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) becomes vital in the daily living of humanity. Despite the multitude of benefits, the dangers lurking in cyberspace is both real and flourishing. iPredator Author, Dr. Michael Nuccitelli, will be a guest on Late Night in the Midlands, with host Michael Vara, to educate listeners on his recently published Internet Predator Warning Signs Checklist (IBWSC). On Thursday, 12/6/12, from 9:15 11:55 pm EST, Dr. Nuccitelli will present his assessment tool and invites citizens to call in with their results for free consultation.

As Dr. Nuccitelli has stated, Im not an alarmist or someone who advocates for ICT to be censored or monitored. What I do believe is that online sexual predation, cyberstalking and cyberbullying are real and flourishing.

During his three-hour instructional presentation, Dr. Nuccitelli and show host, Michael Vara, welcome citizens to call in with their results of the IBWSC. Individuals who do call have the option to remain anonymous. A brief definition of iPredator, the IBWSC and five items from the IBWSC are as follows:

iPredator Bridge Warning Signs Checklist (IBWSC): The IBWSC is a 50 item checklist designed to investigate if a loved one, colleague or peer is participating in or close to participating in harmful online and/or ICT activities toward others. Multiple affirmative responses to IBWSC statements suggests the person being queried exhibits patterned and/or observable behavioral patterns indicating they may be engaged in iPredator activities. The IBWSC focuses on confirmed behavioral observations and not upon personal convictions and/or philosophical reasons for harming others online or using ICT.

iPredator: A child, adult or group who, directly or indirectly, engages in exploitation, victimization, stalking, theft or disparagement of others using Information and Communications Technology (ICT.) iPredators are driven by deviant fantasies, desires for power and control, retribution, religious fanaticism, political reprisal, psychiatric illness, perceptual distortions, peer acceptance or personal and financial gain. iPredators can be any age, either gender and not bound by economic status, race or national heritage. Whether the offender is a cyberbully, cyberstalker, cyber harasser, cyber-criminal, online sexual predator, internet troll or cyber terrorist, they fall within the scope of iPredator.

IBWSC 5 Item Example:

1. The person is a habitual social networking site and/or ICT user and regularly interacts with a select group of online contacts that he/she has never met in person.
