Best Answer

Essentially cyberbullying as we know it started shortly after the internet came into being (around 1983). As soon as someone started being critical of someone else via inter-computer communications, it could be considered bullying. We could probably argue that it began with the first computer chat rooms, which were on non-networked systems at universities in the early 1970's. The firstdedicated online chat service that was widely available to the public was the CompuServe CB Simulatorin 1980.
