Abstract

Social Media is an integral part of everyday life, influencing shopping trends, business decisions, political discourse, and social awareness. These platforms are founded on the principle of freedom of expression, empowering people for opinions and ideas. On the darker side, this openness is exposed to Hate Speech, cyberbullying, which lead to serious real-world consequences such as psychological harm, social polarization, erosion of trust, and even violence. Just as responsible citizens contribute to physical safety, ensuring cyber safety and digital well-being within future smart cities is the roles of responsible netizens. This survey aims at the role of Natural Language Processing (NLP) to safeguard this digital landscape. The study systematically reviews research papers from IEEE, ACM, Elsevier, and other reputable sources, providing valuable insights, key challenges in this domain.
