Lately, the feeling has crept on me more and more that my Internet activity is being closely tracked. It may sound bizarre, but I have reason to believe that someone in the public eye (he's high-profile - many of you would recognize his name if I said it) is spying on my online activity.
Why do I suspect this? Well, for one - I noticed that a couple of his relatives suddenly made their Facebook pages more "private" after I browsed on them. This made me think at first that there is some 3rd party app that allows one to view who has visited their Facebook page - but from what I've seen, this is not the case. So could it be that someone who would be in a position to notify these relatives that I was on their Facebook pages has implanted some type of spyware onto my computer?
And this isn't the only thing that has caused me to wonder - there have been certain other "coincidences" here lately that have "spooked" me a bit.
So how possible is it that I'm being spied on - either directly or indirectly - by this certain "famous" person?
And would it be possible that I could isolate the particular spyware application(s) that are implanted onto my computer and trace it back to him? Do I have the resources to do so?
