Abstract
In the past two decades, the ultra-dependency and unlimited access to the Internet has changed relationships, and communication and have brought numerous benefits for users worldwide. However, as a double-edged sword, such technology has also generated a high degree of risk of victimisation, especially cyberstalking. Evidence has indicated that cyberstalking has led to more heinous crimes such as cyber fraud through data mining and social engineering. Moreover, when the crime transcends into the real world it results in rape and even murder. The use of new technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning has also aggravated the situation where victims are now exposed to various vulnerabilities and risks as it opens new pathways for stalkers to commit this heinous crime. Given the severe impacts of cyberstalking, this chapter will examine the nature of the crime, the use of artificial intelligence in committing stalking, the motives of cyberstalkers and the legal response towards the crime.
