There’s been a huge effort to discredit the victims of this horrific type of crime.
Sure, there are people out there who are paranoid, but gang stalking – also called organized stalking, community stalking, group stalking – exists. It’s a combination with harassment and there is not always a clear category for much of this in existing legislation. In addition, investigating this phenomenon is very expensive and time-consuming, requiring specialized expertise (notably in the field of IT).
However, the existence of so-called Com(mmunity) groups such as 764 is now (January 2026) widely accepted. So the belief that all victims who sound crazy when they talk about what is being done to them are indeed crazy is yesteryear’s naive foolishness.

The following Wikipedia page, however, should never have been approved, that is, not in the state that it was in at some point in 2024 when I added some information in an effort to help put a stop to the relentless mocking and ridiculing of genuine victims of stalking and harassment.

However, my edits were reversed.
This almost never happens with my Wikipedia edits.
It did also happen within the context of my own stalking, namely when I added information (a documentary and a series of articles from the local newspaper) about the notoriously violent culture of Portsmouth, in Hampshire UK.
I’ve previously added information to the Wikipedia page about Boris Johnson’s wife about ties to Russia and a few other bits and pieces. You’d expect a storm of protest. Nope, not a single letter was changed. I have edited other politicians’ pages. Not a problem. I have edited various scientists’ pages. Not a problem either.
This is about misogyny, because in effect, that Wikipedia page essentially suggested that women are crazy.
No, they are not.
This is what I had written on Wikipedia:
However, it is important to emphasize at the same time that organized group stalking does exist. An example is the [[EBay stalking scandal|stalking of Ina and David Steiner organized by eBay employees]]. See also the following Wikipedia pages: [[Stalking_by_groups|”Stalking by Groups”]] and [[“Mobbing”]].
I also referred to a study by Sheridan, Davies and Boon (2001), which had been accepted when I added it on a different Wikipedia page. This too was removed. I found it sickening that in this manner, Wikipedia contributes to the vilification of stalking victims, most of them women.
After I protested against this, I was informed that I might be blocked from Wikipedia. I then decided to stop contributing to Wikipedia altogether. I’d been a Wikipedia editor since 2011.
Illustrative for your understanding of the phenomenon of gang stalking or whatever you want to call it may be the way the maffia supposedly operates within the context of people who don’t keep their mouth shut about crimes. Scientology does something similar, so I understand.
Examples of gang-stalking or group-stalking
- Pizzagate, in New York, US
- Vapegate, in Portsmouth, Hampshire, UK
- The stalking of the Steiners (Ina Steiner MBA and David Steiner) organized by eBay staff in the US
In each of these three cases, people were prosecuted and sentenced.
In other words, what was done to the victims was absolutely totally completely crazy, insane and utterly bizarre, but the victims were NOT absolutely totally completely crazy, insane and unhinged.
In most cases, victims of this bizarre and evil phenomenon are still dismissed, mocked and marginalized.
