Technology

In today’s corporate environment many tools exist to monitor phone calls, emails, internet usage, view the activities on individuals computer monitor, hidden microphones, and use hidden cameras to monitor individuals physical activities. These tools are usually used for quality control and corporate security. Most people understand the need for these tools.

Some people may feel that they are under constant surveillance and this is a form of harassment.

Unfortunately, these technologies can also be used to intentionally harass individuals and induce different psychological disorders. Other individuals can constantly indirectly comment on the individual's computer and phone call activities. This not only gives the individual the impression of being under constant surveillance but also keeps part of his attention focused on the group's indirect comments. The comments are usually of a negative nature to attack the individuals self esteem. Whether or not the comments are negative or positive, they are an indirect form of communication, a form of conditioning. This is a subject that is further covered in the Psychological Manipulation (State of Constant Interrogation) page and induced psychological illness.

This tactic is also used to induce paranoia.
