Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

Monitoring a woman's use of the internet, email or other electronic communication falls within stalking. Section 78 separately includes repeated pursuit or contact despite disinterest, so electronic monitoring need not involve physical following. The provision preserves specified exceptions for lawful crime prevention, legal requirements and conduct proved reasonable and justified.
