With the development of technology, making all circles both children and adults participate on using digital technology in the form of social media. Many use social media in positive ways and there are also who abuse social media in a negative direction, for example, they do cyberbullying to certain parties. Also, at the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, all groups used social media for their interests.
Thus, SCORP CIMSA Unimal held an activity called ANTIMO (Anti Bullying Movement). ANTIMO aims to educate and make the public aware of the importance of using social media wisely and the dangers of using it such as cyberbullying, considering that social media users are very diverse for their ages.
