As technology advances, cyber stalking becomes a more complex and perilous affair. And, the dangers of the Internet are magnified for those who pursue online dating. For those who do meet others online it's foolish to assume that someone who exhibits all the signs of cyber stalking won't try to find you in real life. In fact, Around 20% of Internet stalking cases leads to offline stalking. This means that if national stastics are correct, then 8 million women will be stalked online, and about 1,600,000 of them will then be stalked in the real world.
And as the above case makes so clear, stalkers today are relying on more and more sophisticated means of harassing their victims. Sometimes it's as simple as constant spamming, other times it can involve threats, identity theft, and physical harm, all made possible through computers and technology. Sadly, it's very hard to track and catch a stalker who acheives his or her goal via technology.
Unless, of course, you rely on your own technology. In this case, nothing would be better to have than good, quality
computer monitoring software.
