dc.description.notes<p><span style="left: 65.6488px;top: 323.117px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;">A growing body of research suggests that intimate partner abusers use digital technologies to surveil their</span><span style="left: 66.1017px;top: 338.924px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;">partners, including by installing spyware apps, compromising devices and online accounts, and employing</span><span style="left: 66.1017px;top: 354.731px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;"> social engineering tactics. However, to date, this form of privacy violation, called intimate partner surveillance </span><span style="left: 65.7137px;top: 370.539px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;">(IPS), has primarily been studied from the perspective of victim-survivors. We present a qualitative study of</span><span style="left: 66.1017px;top: 386.346px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;">how potential perpetrators of IPS harness the emotive power of sharing personal narratives to validate and </span><span style="left: 66.1017px;top: 402.153px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;">legitimise their abusive behaviours. We analysed 556 stories of IPS posted on publicly accessible online forums</span><span style="left: 66.1017px;top: 417.96px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;"> dedicated to the discussion of sexual infidelity. We found that many users share narrative posts describing IPS</span><span style="left: 66.1017px;top: 433.766px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;"> as they boast about their actions, advise others on how to perform IPS without detection, and seek suggestions </span><span style="left: 66.1017px;top: 449.573px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;">for next steps to take. We identify a set of common thematic story structures, justifications for abuse, and</span><span style="left: 66.1017px;top: 465.38px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;"> outcomes within the stories that provide a window into how these individuals believe their behaviour to</span><span style="left: 66.1017px;top: 481.187px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;">be justified. Using these stories, we develop a four-stage framework that captures the change in a potential</span><span style="left: 66.1017px;top: 496.994px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;"> perpetrator&rsquo;s approach to IPS. We use our findings and framework to guide a discussion of efforts to combat </span><span style="left: 66.1017px;top: 512.801px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;">abuse, including how we can identify crucial moments where interventions might be safely applied to prevent</span><span style="left: 66.1017px;top: 528.608px;font-size: 12.933px;font-family: sans-serif;">or deescalate IPS</span>.</p>en
