Sharing or Cyberstalking

We all hear about the real cyberstalking - but how do you feel about the type that is personal?
Take, for example, an ex reading the things that you post on twitter or fb.
Or a parent 'following' their child?
Or a fan their favourite celebrity?
To the reader, they are merely reading what interests them, with, in their mind, permission from the person posting.
Yet to the person who posted, they may feel that you are stalking them. That you reading their every post is too intrusive. That you have moved beyond sharing to obsessing.
It's a fine line, isn't it?
Happy New Year.
