My bullies, throughout my life, have chosen violate my privacy as much as possible. They disguise the harassment for why they bringing things up. Over my life, my bullies have tended to try to ask questions when I'm off guard and spread personal things about me through gossip.
Do many people find the main reason it is hard to complain about bullying is that the content of harassment is so personal and private, it defeats the purpose of complaining? You have to make a record of it to some director, head of department etc. And that person in charge probably knows about the type of people he/she employs.

Not necessarily. And even if they do, formal complaints mean the creation of a record, the kind of thing that the complainer can take to the boss's superior, the press or the courts, if necessary.
@jespah,
"boss's superior, the press or the courts, if necessary."
The press would be a tremendous fear for creating a written record. That's one of the reasons I made the original post. Privacy violations seem hard to deal with if the people in charge don't care. The people in charge need to be sensitive to this type of bullying.
@BioChem1,
Then tell them. Don't expect them to be mind readers.
