Technology-facilitated abuse

• Location tracking (phone, AirTag, car GPS, Find My Friends, Google Maps location sharing)
• Account monitoring (shared email, iCloud, Google, social media)
• Spyware / stalkerware installed on your phone
• Messages, photos, call logs being read remotely
• Harassment over messaging, email or social media
• Non-consensual sharing of intimate images ("image-based abuse")
• Smart home devices (cameras, doorbells, thermostats) being used to watch or control

The eSafety Commissioner is an Australian Government agency with specialist teams for technology-facilitated abuse, image-based abuse and online harassment. Their support is free and confidential. Visit esafety.gov.au and search "adults" or "family and domestic violence."

• Use a trusted friend's phone or a library computer to research options
• Open a new email account on a safe device, used only by you
• Use private/incognito browsing mode when researching this app or services
• Check if your phone is sharing its location with anyone, in Settings
• Consider a cheap pre-paid phone kept somewhere private

Again — talk to a safety counsellor first if you can. Sudden changes can sometimes be more dangerous than the original problem.
