"If I were to do something wrong, well not actually wrong but just something he didn't want me to do, he would lock me out of the Wi-Fi or take my phone off me as punishment."

Coercive control is a form of domestic abuse.

"From coercive control through devices to online harassment, cyber bullying, stalking, grooming, revenge porn and other exploitation, technology-facilitated abuse is on the rise."

If you are being subjected to digital abuse, help is available.

Depending on whether or not you are living with the person who is harming you, you may choose to take different steps. Make sure it is safe before taking any of these actions.

Technology has transformed how we connect, work, and express ourselves. But it has also created new spaces for abuse.

Creating “deepfakes” with AI is one issue that is becoming more concerning.
