A digital citizen is someone who uses digital technology to interact and communicate with others. Once you start using websites or apps to connect with other people, you are a digital citizen.

Like a citizen of a country, digital citizens are part of a community. It’s up to those members to decide what kind of place they want to “live” in. When digital citizens behave with respect and compassion, the internet can be a wonderful place where people can learn, grow, and prosper.
