Ever felt like your darkest fears of being watched were actually true? Marie's powerful documentation pulls back the curtain on life as a targeted individual—where privacy becomes fiction and safety an illusion.

Marie begins her raw, unfiltered account by describing how traditional authorities—police, FBI, employers, and school officials etc.—have failed her, offering therapy referrals instead of protection. "To me, that's just a nice way of saying you're crazy," she explains, highlighting the profound isolation that comes when systems designed for protection become another form of gaslighting.

Drawing on Malcolm X's powerful observation that "the most unprotected person in America is the Black woman," Marie contextualizes her experience within broader patterns of vulnerability and dismissal, modifying this quote to say that "the most unprotected person in the world is the Black woman". Her harassment transcends digital boundaries—strangers park outside her home to extract data, neighbors participate in surveillance, and sophisticated technology infiltrates every device and platform in her life. Most disturbingly, Marie reveals how her private information has been weaponized and monetized by others, turned into social media content, and used to systematically block opportunities from employment to basic daily activities.

This series stands as both documentation and resistance—a refusal to be silenced despite overwhelming odds. While Marie doesn't share her complete testimony here, her courage in documenting these experiences offers crucial visibility to a form of abuse that thrives in shadows and silence. Listen to understand how technology enables new forms of harassment, and why believing victims matters more than ever in our hyper-connected world.
