Privacy invasion refers to the unauthorized access or disclosure of an individual's personal information. This can occur through various means, such as hacking, surveillance, or data breaches. When someone's privacy is invaded, their sensitive information, like financial details or private communications, may be exposed without their consent. The rise of technology has made privacy invasion more common, as many people share personal data online. Social media platforms and apps often collect user information, which can be misused if not properly protected. Laws and regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), aim to safeguard individuals' privacy rights in the digital age.
