London: Actor Daniel Craig, famous as James Bond on the silver screen, feels like a kid being "bullied at school" when he reads negative comments about himself on the internet, he told the Sunday Times Culture.

The SPECTRE star admitted that he received fair share of criticism since taking on the lead role of James Bond in Casino Royale but thinks people can be incredibly cruel online.

"If you're even slightly famous, you should avoid the internet at all costs. It's like being bullied at school," he said. (Also Read: I Just Need a Break: Daniel Craig on Playing James Bond)

The 47-year-old actor also insisted he does not understand the "modern world".

"If I go out with mates and someone started taking photographs, they'd get thumped. The other thing I don't get is, people are happy to take pictures of me without asking. But things have changed so rapidly."
