Overall, the information provided in the film would have a positive influence on its viewers. The film draws attention to the personal turmoil that bullying can cause along with the actions that can be taken by victims of bullying. Although the suicide attempt in the film seemed overly dramatic for the situation depicted, suicide is a real possibility and it is important that people understand what acts of bullying can lead to. The film also emphasizes that victims of cyberbullying should speak out. Another thing the film brought awareness to is the lack of options when it comes to fighting bullies. Few states have laws regarding the issue. One source of possible negative influence the film could have is the main character's back-to-school portal. This can give people the idea that if they draw attention to the bullying behavior of others, their peers will support them. There is no light on the likely possibility of the bullying resuming afterwards. In addition to this possible negative influence, the film accurately portrayed a situation of cyberbullying, educating the public and raising awareness on the topic of cyberbullying.
