Stalkers would no doubt align themselves with that part of civil society
which values anonymity and free speech (which are both good when used
for the good, but can also be used for the bad).
Most stalkers are ex-partners and other members of the public with a
grudge; not "private sector", or "government", or "trade associations",
or "academia" nor any other recognised 'stakeholder group', and can
therefore only be members of "civil society".
(Or are they allowed to be outside of such discussions, as a
non-stakeholder?)
As you didn't mention them, can I assume you agree that the victims are
members of Civil Society?
