If you're on social media, you're likely very aware of potential online abuse and harassment — of which marginalized groups bear the brunt. There is, however, another insidious form of abuse as it relates to technology: digital abuse.
Digital abuse is the use of technology, like texting and social media, to bully, harass, stalk, or intimidate a partner, according to love is respect, a support project by the U.S. National Domestic Violence Hotline aimed at young people. Examples of digital abuse are controlling who you can connect and speak with on social media; keeping constant tabs on you through social networks, spyware, or tools like location sharing; and stealing your passwords.

controlling your online accounts, whether social media or otherwise (like your bank)
sending negative, insulting, or threatening messages
cyberflashing, or sending unwanted explicit images
demanding or pressuring you to send explicit images
posting explicit images of you without permission (intimate image abuse)
using your social media accounts without your permission
posing as you on social media
putting you down for content you post
taking away your devices
According to a survey of over 2,000 UK women and people of other marginalized genders by social network Communia, 29 percent of respondents have had a partner control or try to control their social media interactions. One in nine (11 percent) had a partner who did take control of their social interactions, while 18 percent had a partner who tried.

Eight percent of respondents 55 and over said the same. Further, LGBTQ people also experience this: 61 percent of LGBTQ respondents had a partner control or try to control digital interactions.
