N2 - Since the emergence of the Internet in the 1970s, criminology has been focusing on what this digital revolution means for crime and the fight against it. In this regard, much scholarly attention in recent years has focused on cybercrime. This editorial of the special issue on undesirable behavior online can be seen as an invitation for Dutch criminology to relate more broadly to the digitization of our society. As the contributed articles in this special issue make clear, online undesirable behavior has a wide variety of manifestations. What connects these articles are criminologically relevant questions concerning the punishability, but also the harmfulness of the behavior and, in particular, whether the harm relates to the online content or its offline consequences. This also raises the question of whether thinking in such a binary opposition does sufficient justice to the complex interaction and intense interconnectedness between the online and offline domains. Finally, the contributions in this issue also illustrate that digitization has resulted in a variety of digital artifacts that can be studied.
