| description | The internet, especially in Brazil, has quickly expanded. One of the fuels for the arrival of new users are the portable devices, such as smartphones and tablets. These devices, besides being more accessible than the traditional computers, also lean on mobile internet, which, in addition to being cheap, reaches any neighborhood, breaking the infrastructure barriers, since today there is no broadband internet in many outskirt neighborhoods. Therefore, which changes the virtual environment has suffered, with the introduction of these new players, where, as we know, most of them has a low income and are arriving in a territory previously accessible only for people with higher economic and social class? In this final paper, defended at IEL on December 2014, we will see that one of the problems is the linguistic discrimination, which occurs when a person is silenced, agressed or excluded, because one emitted a discourse different from the standard Portuguese rule. Through the interaction analysis in purchase websites, videos and social media, I will show that, even that internet eliminate many exclusion and distance borders existing in the real world, such as neighborhoods, in practice, the discourse remains as the main exclusion way, with the linguistic discrimination being even more evident in this environment, since, in the absence of other elements to characterize the person&";s social class, the focus is on the way one writes, and writing differently from the standard rule, this person is automatically excluded, once the linguistic discrimination is also a social discrimination. |

Preconceito linguistico. Redes sociais. Internet. Bullying. The internet, especially in Brazil, has quickly expanded. One of the fuels for the arrival of new users are the portable devices, such as smartphones and tablets. These devices, besides being more accessible than the traditional computers, also lean on mobile internet, which, in addition to being cheap, reaches any neighborhood, breaking the infrastructure barriers, since today there is no broadband internet in many outskirt neighborhoods.

A internet, sobretudo no Brasil, tem se expandido rapidamente. Um dos combustíveis para a chegada de novos usuários são os dispositivos portáteis, como smartphones e tablets. Esses dispositivos, além de mais acessíveis que os computadores tradicionais, também contam com internet móvel, que além de barata, chega a qualquer bairro, quebrando as barreiras da infraestrutura, pois ainda hoje não há internet banda larga em muitos bairros de regiões periféricas. Que mudanças, portanto, tem sofrido o ambiente virtual, com a introdução desses novos atores, onde, sabidamente, a maioria deles é de baixa renda e está desembarcando em um território que só era acessível apenas para pessoas de maior classe econômica e social? Veremos neste trabalho de conclusão de curso, defendido no IEL em Dezembro de 2014, que um dos problemas é o preconceito linguístico, que se dá quando uma pessoa é silenciada, agredida ou excluída, porque emitiu um discurso fora da norma padrão do português. Através da análise de interações em sites de compras, vídeos e redes sociais, mostrarei que, ainda que a internet elimine muitas fronteiras de exclusão e distanciamento que existem no mundo real, como bairros, na prática, o discurso permanece como principal forma de exclusão, sendo que o preconceito linguístico é ainda mais evidente nesse meio, pois na ausência de outros elementos para caracterizar a classe social da pessoa, o foco é posto no modo como ela escreve, e, escrevendo fora da norma padrão, essa pessoa é automaticamente excluída, uma vez que o preconceito linguístico é também preconceito social.
