In general, everything depended on the scale - surveillance was in the range of the country, the world or someone's boudoir. Over time the ways have changedequipment was improved. In our time, surveillance of a person by phone is especially popular. Conveniently, almost everyone has it, always with them, and it stores a lot of information, often compromising.
“Everything around is collective farm, everything around is mine…”
That's what people say, referring to someone's lack of tact and personal space. We are all different and perceive the boundaries of our own and others differently. Most seek to protect society from the details of their lives, their intimate thoughts, feelings and other things. This is not only about relationships with a partner, but even about the elementary choice of underwear. An intimate question, agree? And, if one person does not have complexes and embarrassments, others can really worry about their little things.
Needless to say, it is often free-thinking people who are just not embarrassed to get into the phone of their spouse or friend without asking, or hire a spy to satisfy their jealousy. It's a delicate question, but it can and should be discussed. In this case, honesty would be the best option, but where is the guarantee that you will be treated fairly?

- Let's start with the passport. You can also be followed through websites for booking tickets. Post your data only in official applications and pages, like Russian Railways, Aeroflot, and so on. Call the hotline and find out everything about the company. A cheap ticket can sell your passport details, and you won't get a vacation either.

- If you are confused by a person on the street, in a car, then try changing your destination or going the other way. Avoid deserted places. Create an unusual situation and watch the reaction.
