This is a blend of survivor-centered education, psychology, and clear red-flag guidance. And it's all grounded in research.
We call this: Spyware - Detection and Removal.
This is not an interview with a survivor. It is not red flags wrapped into a story. This is about the red flags you need to know so you will never be fooled by someone trying to use digital technology to control and stalk you in a relationship.
It is a fairly short episode, so it is easily heard in one sitting. And so you can hear it again and again.
You might want to take notes. This information can save someone's life.
Host: Bill Mitchell
