How do I stop a hacker from using acronyms and automations to label my files on my computer?

@coennn Thanks for responding, and for responding quickly. I don't know, but things are like automated. And not only that but they are like random tag ons of like random things. Like how can I get logged out or how could my password generator come up weird names of things that I only know about? It's like something is embedded into the software.

Well, I have gone to the police before. Even for incidents of medical notes that have been reported. And I've even shown cops of people following me repeatedly. And they just say it's not a crime and it's not stalking.

What I'm trying to say is that I didn't make up those titles. But when I published it was loaded by itself. Also, I'm not asking to resolve old crimes or allegations of crimes. But downloading a program online to review an internal problem on an Apple Air isn't a fully secure way to manage the problem. I feel like I need to go to a forensics lab. Am I not right? Plus encryption at our level is breakable, according to some scholarly journals. It's like we've entered the era of introducing the need for super computers.

This is just to inform Apple…

End of report

I've got to go to school. I'll talk to you guys later. For the most part, this exercise should just serve to inform Apple of how things could get into its apps. Glitchy tricks... I guess... but the report doesn't really share the code of what happened.
