Cyberstalking

Cyberstalking is a form of online harassment where an individual repeatedly threatens, harasses, or intimidates someone using digital platforms, such as social media, email, or messaging apps. Unlike traditional stalking, cyberstalking can occur anonymously and at any time, making it pervasive and difficult to escape. Victims may experience anxiety, fear, and stress due to relentless online surveillance and unwanted contact. This behavior is considered illegal in many jurisdictions and is taken seriously by law enforcement, as it can significantly impact a person’s safety and mental well-being.
