Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

My now ex boyfriend put a keylogger on my computer without my knowledge. I recently found out when he forwarded a copy of what i typed. It scares me to think that he has done this and I would like to take legal action. Is there anything I can do at this point?

Depending on the content of his message to you containing the copy of what you typed, you might also seek a civil harassment restraining order if you fear for your personal safety.
