WomanSavers.com Forum / ONTARIO / TV Documentary

Hi all. My name is Maggie. I‘m working on a television documentary for one of Canada‘s two largest English television networks. I have spent the better part of today looking at various chatrooms, all of which are full of spam and/or are populated by nutbars.  I tripped over this one and it appears to be full of good, sincere people, so I apologize in advance if I‘m contaminating your environment.  If someone asks me to get out, I will....with apologies.

 What I‘m looking for are "first-person" stories.  Stories from people that have an first-hand experience "spying" on someone or being spied upon. For instance, spying on your spouse/partner, your kids, your friend(s). Teens spying on parents, people spying on co-workers. What do they use, how do they do it, what it their motivation, where do they learn "how"? Have you ever spied or been spied on? Do you know anyone? Are you aware of any former law enforcement folks who now train lay people to spy on others? If you think you know anything at all or have any contacts who might be willing to talk to me for research purposes, I would love to hear from you.  Anonymity will, of course, be maintained.  If we want to take this further - if we would lik to invite you to tell your story on camera, that will be negotiated separately and I would, of course, provide references that you could check prior to our communicating outside of this site.I‘ll try to respond to all posts as quickly as possible. Even if you think your info is not relevant, you might be surprised. Please post any thoughts, ideas, contacts, anything at all. Many thanks in advance for any help and apologies again if anyone thinks I‘m invading or anything.
