Update 12 13 Feb 2024: It was NOT the dongle.

As the details were on its box and I had the impression that the locks to F’s place had gotten picked at least once (VERY easy to do), and T struck me as gullible, too, I knew that using it was risky. Besides, these things are vulnerable. But I had no choice.
There’s a very heavy overhead, locally. Nothing I could do about that either. I spotted him very early on, but probably too late. He did something that also happened often in Portsmouth. It got himself noticed. Also, sometimes, you can sense people’s focus on you when it’s more than about, say, the henna hair. Perhaps when it’s combined with pretending very hard not to be even seeing you. What we call “intuition” is often just observations registered and stored by the brain for future reference.
I have some IT in my background. I started teaching myself Basic a long time ago, considered going into computer science (AI, actually), asked the computer sciences department at VU University Amsterdam for the literature list and purchased one or two books on it, one by Tanenbaum. I then decided that I preferred a more multidisciplinary field.
Feats that don’t mean a thing within this stalking and hacking context other than to show that Mrs stupid brainless female cow doesn’t exist:
- I had some Unix and some Turbo-Pascal as part of my earth sciences training.
- I’ve reprogrammed a modem so that it would let me do e-mail from a late model XT computer (XT, yes, not AT). I can also give you the name of the person who told me to do that and what program I needed for that. (I had no idea.) The old days’ women’s networks were brilliant. They’ve all disappeared, sadly.
- I have built computers from scratch.
- I started using DOS computers since hmm 1987 or so, have in addition used Macs since 1990, and Linux since about 2014.
- I have built large websites as pure html in notepad. One had over 200 pages and there were several links from Wikipedia to it. That was my old business website.
- First mobile? 2001.
So you can stuff your stupid insults about brainless females who don’t even know where to find the on/off button of a computer.
Nobody ever talks about the crucial role of staff working at the providers plays. If anyone can get you hacked, it’s them. The money is too good to ignore.
I know how to keep a newly purchased computer clean. So how was it detected? I have several theories but perhaps the most likely one is that someone at Trading212 tipped off my stalker that I had opened a new account. 4chan members work everywhere. (Avatrade is another possibility; you can mess with MT5, and cause the computer to download and install illegal code that way.)
That said, I had also noticed, before, that my main wifi connection, on my tablet, was constantly getting hijacked by a local wifi hotspot; that hotspot later was out of action for about two weeks. I suspect, but can’t be sure, that the internet access through a dongle attached to my computer was also actually provided through that hotspot for a while.
Also, I have once seen a scanner in the air in Portsmouth, very briefly. Someone was looking for people to hack into. There may have been a scanner here at my current location that detected a new signal in the air and that may have caused someone to explore it. Seems less likely to me. Because that doesn’t explain the connection with England and the fact that I was sometimes very clearly connected to a server in the UK when I shouldn’t be.
That’s not exhausted the options. Something else occurred that was unusual but that was likely a mere coincidence.
This sadistic stalking and hacking bullshit has to stop and now, in order for me to be able to start over, I have to relocate AGAIN. That would be the FOURTH TIME that I’ve relocated since this bullshit began.
ENOUGH!
