ABSTRACT

With the advancement of information technology, stalking harassment has evolved into a hybrid online-offline infringement model. Studies show that the current legal framework has problems such as the absence of specific charges, limited protection of legal interests, and scattered application and liability boundaries of stalking behaviors, therefore the paper suggests constructing a hierarchical intervention system of "warning - penalty-accountability", and strengthening cross-departmental collaboration and electronic evidence rules to balance privacy protection and law enforcement requirements. In the future, attention should be paid to the trend of technological evolution, and the improvement of systems and multi-party co-governance should be strengthened to safeguard citizens' rights and interests.
