Keeping the Internet safe is a responsibility we all share. We need to take time to stop and think before we connect to the Internet, share information online, or participate in online communities.

But sometimes, a creative and compelling reminder can help. That’s why the Department kicked-off the Stop. Think. Connect. PSA Challenge – because all Americans have an important role to play in securing the Internet.

The Challenge began Monday, November 8, 2010, at 12:01 p. m. ET and ended on Tuesday, May 31, 2011, at 11:59 p.m. ET. Stop.Think.Connect. thanks everyone for their participation. Please check back more information on the winners.
