 A legal analysis of such a phenomenon as cyberbullying is presented, the author's definition of this concept is given. The existing legal mechanisms for bringing to justice for cyberbullying, as well as the latest Russian legislative initiatives aimed at criminalizing this offense, have been analyzed. To study the problem of criminalization of cyberbullying, a comparative legal study was conducted, within the framework of which the legislation and law enforcement practice of the Russian Federation, Austria, China, Uzbekistan, and the Philippines were analyzed. The choice of countries is dictated by a different approach to regulating the prohibition of bullying: direct regulation throughspecialized norms or, on the contrary, the application of existing norms aimed at protecting the honor and dignity of the individual, when adapting them to the specifics of the problem of cyberbullying. This approach made it possible during the analysis to draw com-prehensive conclusions about the actual need to introduce a new composition. It is concluded that it is necessary to introduce independent administrative and criminal composition for the commission of this act in view of its special public danger, confirmed by the data of sociological studies of recent years. As part of the formulation of thе proposal, the most successful, in the author's opinion, foreign practices of regulating liability for cyberbullying and similar criminal and administrative offenses are taken into account.
