My iPhone, and every phone I have had for the past six years is hacked. I wouldn’t say hacked. Actually there’s someone I know who is a developer and has an account under my name and Apple developers, as well as Google developers. I try to read and research what they’re doing but I can’t because I’ve discovered every page I visit, including my own phone is filled with misinformation. Words are purposely misspelled and two articles are put together or mesh together or something. My Wi-Fi is poisoned the network I’m hooked up to is not the actual one it is, and there’s some sort of marketing scam going on. Can anybody help me?

I’m a bit confused by your message. But if you are genuinely worried you might consider any of the following.
> Contacting Apple support (ideally at a physical store, but if not by phone)
> Create a new Apple ID, then reset your phone and sign in with your new account.
> Delete your old Google and Apple accounts on a PC.
> Change all online passwords, make them unique and complex, and use a good password manager.
> Buy a new router.
> Report any genuine suspicion of identity theft to your local police as well any relevant online services (Apple, Google etc)
> Always use 2 factor authentication for email accounts or other online services. Don’t use text message for 2fa if possible but an authenticator app like Authy or even a hardware Yubikey.
> consider a hardware firewall such as firewalla.

Whoa, that sounds like a seriously intense situation. I'm not an expert, but it might be a good idea to reach out to someone who is. Maybe try contacting Apple or Google support for advice on how to handle a situation like this. In the meantime, maybe consider changing your Wi-Fi network password and being cautious about what information you share online. Hang in there!
