Question about cyberbullying

Hey guys. I just finished writing a paper about cyberbullying, and I had to formulate a question at the end for my readers. The more I think about, the more I doubt my question

Anyway, the question is:

[b]Does cyberbullying become the same thing as bullying if the bully is known to you and harasses you in person and online?[/b]

Secondary questions:
If you say "yes, it is the same":

[b]If it is the same, why is it necessary to create the term "cyberbullying"? Is it because the interaction between the individuals involved are the same?[/b]

If you say "no, they're still different:
[b]Why?[/b] lol.

Cyberbullying is not the same as something like real life bullying imo. While the physical violence might not be there, people are almost always anonymous online, so their words can end up being more vulgar, whether they mean it or not.
