No, from what you guys have said you didn't tell her about it until after the fact. That's super douchey and retroactive permission doesn't change anything. If you grabbed a girl's butt and she laughed it off as "fun between friends," it doesn't make it ok. You need to ask permission first.
If you think cyberstalking is only bad if you add doxing to it, then you don't understand cyberstalking.
- philfreo 13y agoShe knew what was going on, not just after the fact. I've just re-read the definitions for "stalking", "cyberstalking", and "harassment" and I can assure you none of what we did qualifies given the actual scenario of how things really occurred.
- abalone 13y agoThat directly contradicts what your colleague says. He says when she found out about it she laughed it off. So which one of you is telling the truth?
- mikeash 13y agoIt's not impossible to "find out" about something before it's over, you know. The white knights in this thread need to calm down just a wee bit.

They weren't seeking any advantage over the subject at all, directly or indirectly. Keep in mind that the information that they were looking for could just as easily have been volunteered by the sales guy in other circumstances, so it's not like this information was tightly under her control in the first place. "What's her name? Where does she live?" - these are pretty common questions when discussing romantic liaisons with friends and colleagues.
