Makes me think of the 'gang stalking' phenomenon.
There are people online claiming to be harassed by groups of people hired by governments or shadow organizations. This ranges from being followed in the street or having people looking at you menacingly at the supermarket, to being subject to psychic warfare using electromagnetic weapons.
I have yet to find a case that convinces me it's not pathological paranoia.
But where it gets interesting is that these people also claim the "harassment" happens on the very forums where they discuss this topic: some posters allegedly make subtle references to info they shouldn't know about, especially because on these imageboards anonymity happens at the thread level.
After having spent enough time on these platforms, this happened to me on a few occasions: posters alluding to my geographical location, or making mentions of things I wrote in other threads with high emotional involvement. I can't tell whether I'm over-interpreting, but one thing that is certain is that these posters were LLMs. I came to that conclusion using various tricks: context-length exhaustion, talking about topics that go beyond their reasoning ability (such as anagrams), and I noticed they fail to properly understand concepts from pictures or to read text behind a link.
Conclusion: the idea of gang-stalking is not an assessment of the situation, it's the tip of a spear meant to induce pathological paranoia.
- Xmd5a 2y agoNATO: APPROVED FOR PUBLIC RELEASE Modeling the Impact of Combat and Influence Actions on Population Attitudes toward Forces During the last decades, stabilization, COIN and CT operations around the world have brought to light an increased need for influence capabilities on local populations and key individuals. Today, western Forces often face non-state actors and other kind of irregular opponents, which have strong interactions with the “human environment'' and find there some support based on ethnic, political or religious affinities. Influence actions aim at altering the perception, attitudes and behaviors within the population and at hindering proinsurgent dynamics. In order to counter them and stabilize the crisis zone, one must win the so-called ‘‘heart and minds’’ of the local population. The understanding of the human terrain and its dynamics is the key for answering those new operational needs and obviously calls for a modeling and simulation effort. Our goal is to develop a simulation of the dynamics of the population in terms of attitude and behavior change and to use in training and decision aid applications.

I had such an interaction in real life, an attempt of an agency to use me. This interaction was seen by a friend or else I would have dismissed it. One cannot easily dismiss these claim since there is a history oif the CIA experimenting on Schizos. https://www.greenleft.org.au/content/intent-harm-cia-schizophrenia-and-denmarks-children https://www.greenleft.org.au/content/intent-harm-cia-schizop...

Electrodes were placed upon his body, his heart rate, body temperature and sweat level measured." And this, a bill banning "mind control"? Psychotronic weapons?
