Online stalking refers to the persistent and unwanted attention someone receives through digital platforms. This behavior can include monitoring a person's social media accounts, sending threatening messages, or using technology to track their online activities. Victims often feel unsafe and violated due to the invasive nature of this conduct. The rise of social media and smartphones has made online stalking more prevalent. It can affect anyone, regardless of age or background, and may lead to serious emotional distress. Many jurisdictions have laws against online stalking, recognizing it as a form of harassment that can have severe consequences for the perpetrator.
