We focus on an emerging trend in the context of domestic violence-the use of technology to facilitate stalking and other forms of abuse. Surveys with 152 domestic violence advocates and 46 victims show that technology-including phones, tablets, computers, and social networking websites-is commonly used in intimate partner stalking. Technology was used to create a sense of the perpetrator's omnipresence, and to isolate, punish, and humiliate domestic violence victims. Perpetrators also threatened to share sexualized content online to humiliate victims. Technology-facilitated stalking needs to be treated as a serious offense, and effective practice, policy, and legal responses must be developed.
我们关注家庭暴力领域的一个新兴趋势——利用技术来便利跟踪和其他形式的虐待。对 152 名家庭暴力倡导者和 46 名受害者进行的调查显示，技术（包括手机、平板电脑、计算机和社交网站）通常用于亲密伴侣跟踪。技术被用于制造施害者无处不在的感觉，以及隔离、惩罚和羞辱家庭暴力受害者。施害者还威胁要在网上分享色情内容来羞辱受害者。需要将技术协助的跟踪行为视为严重犯罪，并制定有效的实践、政策和法律应对措施。
