Internet Addiction And The Risk Of Falling Into Cybercime
Authors : Yousri Ikram . Berkouche Faiza .
Abstract
Abstract: Internet addiction transcends psychological distress by acting as a primary criminological catalyst for both victimization and digital deviance. Driven by a breakdown in self-regulation and constant digital exposure, addicted individuals frequently engage in risky online behaviors—such as excessive self-disclosure and interaction with deviant communities—that align with the "Routine Activities Theory." This creates a dual-risk scenario where the user becomes a highly accessible target for fraud and stalking while simultaneously lowering their own psychological barriers toward committing offenses like cyberbullying or hacking. Ultimately, the study positions internet addiction as a critical predictor of cybercrime, marking it as a significant threat to modern digital security.
