Background: So in my final year of highschool, I remember briefly glancing over and smiling at an introverted guy and ever since, he seemed to be interested in me. I then had feelings for him too, but we never spoke. He was from an orthodox family so he couldn't date me. After graduation we only saw eachother very occasionally, but when he did, he'd stand afar and stare at me, he'd occasionally message me and at parties -he'd watch me from behind the door. This went on for 5 years. One day, he stood at a distance and kept watching my every move so I hid behind something hoping he'd stop but he didn't- I broke down, this is when I realised his behaviour was becoming stalkerish. I began to avoid him and I pretty much haven't seen him since.
2 years after all this, his family arranged his alliance with another girl. I honestly thought he finally moved on until my friends told me to view his wedding pictures online (his wedding pics r the only pics which reveal he's in a relationship). Turns out he made all his wedding pics visible to public, but completely hid them from me. So anyone and everyone, even people who have no mutual friends or no friends at all for that matter, can view them except me. The strange thing is there is literally no direct method for someone to hide publicly available pictures from another user without blocking them, so how is he doing it? I started freaking out again. I don't care why he's hiding those pictures, I want to know how he's doing it and if he's using something more advanced to achieve this?
Update: My friends told me to pretend to leave this unnoticed for a month, so I did. After a month, I blocked him to find out how he'd react. And yes, almost immediately after I blocked him, he went back and unhid all those pics he was trying to hide from me- revealing he still keeps track of my activity.

His ties to Family and potential to place shame upon Family far outweighs any real interest in you. He revealed the pictures as not to cause any grievance.
I don't think you understand. I am literally worried if this guy is cyberstalking me and I do not care at all about him.
My entire concern is how was he able to hide the access and what mechanisms he is using? I literally said there is no direct way to do this, which means I am worried if he is using something advanced to hack into the system code and cyberstalk me. I literally do not care about him anymore. I cannot stress this any further.
If you move on then he will too as shame and guilt reflecting upon his Family is a greater motivation than anything that you may have to offer.
You haven't even read my question. I moved on many years ago, I am concerned if I am being cyberstalked by him and I'm freaking out
To me, you are overthinking the whole thing and seemingly chasing some drama in your life.
I literally have evidence and what I am saying is very real. If you don't know anything on how social media or technology works, please don't answer my question and try to deter the situation with your limited knowledge.
