<![CDATA[Cases of online violence have become increasingly widespread since the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, during which individuals began to grow dependent on the digital world. The digital realm has become a fundamental aspect of human life, bringing with it new forms of online violence. Online violence such as threats, hate speech, harassment, and bullying has emerged as a new weapon to control, isolate, and even torment affected victims.

This study aims to review the literature on patterns of online violence post-pandemic, focusing on the years 2023–2025, and to provide recommendations for future research.
