Cyber Stalking Laws

Cyberstalking laws address the use of digital communications to harass, intimidate, or threaten someone repeatedly. These laws vary by jurisdiction, but generally, they make it illegal to send persistent unwanted messages, publish private information, or use technology to monitor someone’s activities without their consent. Victims can report cyberstalking to law enforcement, which can lead to criminal charges or civil actions against offenders. These laws aim to protect individuals from emotional distress and potential harm arising from online harassment. Understanding and enforcing these laws is essential for promoting safe online interactions.
