(11/N) A fourth category of adversaries:

Intruders

#Intruders want to ignore your #boundaries at will, and their related actions to be unrestricted and without repercussions, for as long as possible. Additionally, satisfaction might be derived from any ineffective responses to their actions.

Controlling your assets at will, and having unrestricted access to them is their goal. Some are fantasizing about a relationship with you that would somehow entitle them to it. Sometimes, their actions include damaging, or destruction of, your assets, to inflict suffering upon you, or for revenge, or to gain notoriety.

This is a wide category that includes attention-getters; #narcissists and #stalkers; abusive, vengeful and jealous people; starstruck individuals seeking #parasocial interaction; thrill seekers; script kiddies; "OSINT" wannabees; swatters; vandals; and sometimes even potential employers.
