Electronics surveillance refers to the systematic monitoring of electronic communication, including text messages, emails, and phone calls. Synonyms for electronic surveillance include electronic monitoring, wiretapping, digital eavesdropping, electronic espionage, and electronic snooping. These terms share the common idea that electronic communication is intercepted and monitored without the knowledge or consent of the parties involved. Each term conveys a slightly different nuance, and some may be more appropriate than others depending on the specific context. Regardless of the terminology, electronic surveillance is a controversial topic due to concerns over privacy and civil liberties, and its use is often subject to legal regulations and oversight.
