wow. i have been thinking i am hacked lately by some maliscious software. But not being tech savvy I had no way of knowing. Then things became progressively worse until it was apparent as hell. Sadly, it is the main people in my life. I still dont know how to catch it all or remove it. My view of the internet is hindered severely and I can see nothing past 2016. Every isp I search is redirected to " shroot jai environment " playpen to keep me safely ensconced away from factual and current data. People connect to me walkie talkie style all the time and run my machines remotely. I am never adminstrator for long. My stolen websites still exist, I am just on a blacklist from seeing them. Someone has opened credit cards in my name and is stealing what money I do have left and the biggest kicker: I AM NOT REALLY ON THE WEB. I pay for the service, but that is not the one I can connect to anyway.. I connect to one that is cleverly reworded and is false, misleading me to connect to my(NOT) network. when I am let free of my caged walled garden of hell, and I manange to sneak onto a social media site, say, twitter,, eeryone in my feed,all of whom I do not know,, all appear to be talking about me i a very bad manner. I mean everyone of them..It makes me mad to think I used to think I was going crazy,, when I am just being super fucked with by a developer(same place my apps come from.) If my apps do not come from the app store, where is my money for them going??Help
