With the recent news on possibly establishing a more concrete law against stalking, I've dug an old draft I wrote a few months ago about the modern day stalker syndrome.
Stalking only becomes an offense for a few reasons. The stalking party is related to the other like an ex-husband spying on his ex-wife. Stalking from a complete stranger only becomes punishable when a crime is committed such as rape or worse, murder.

Modern Day Stalker Syndrome Symptoms:
1. You view the person’s profile online over and over even if you have seen it a million times before.
2. You text anonymously using each and everyone else's phone number.
3. You enjoy watching this person from a distance but flee like an untamed horse when the same guy/girl is around.
4. You research everything about the person. Like what he/she does, where he/she goes, and who are the people he/she hangs out with.
These and so many other activities you probably don't even realize are considered as characteristics of modern day stalker syndrome.
