What made the operator go after Alex in the first place What or Who summoned it? Was it Tim? Did Alex film on "sacred" ground? Or what?

It is suggested in "enttry 37" that TO has been around Alex since he was a child, but suggested by Entry 9, his attitude begins changing around his crew. Perhaps TO had his eye on Alex since childhood but began to physically appear before him in adulthood, like an imaginary friend from hell.
Then again there's the possibility that "enttry 37" may just be a scare tactic by TTA, though the date April 4th appears both in that entry and Entry 26 when it attacks Alex and Amy.

I have a theory, remember in entry 66, Tim rants that it might be his fault. What if it is though? When Tim met Alex, the operator thought he could use Alex. As for enttry 37 its probably TTA being a rascal.
Edit, Has anyone noticed that whenever somebody else that is not Alex uses his camera TO appears

True. Perhaps it followed both of them in childhood and once they were together using the camera as it's "eyes" (if we subscribe to that theory) it then was able to physically manifest itself.

That is a possibility, but the April 4th dates are too significant to 100% write it off as TTA trickery. Besides, for all of TTA's scare tactics, he does seem like he's trying to help somehow rather than throw everyone off course.

Entry #1 disagrees.

I have a counter theory. The Operator could have been there before he turned on the camera.
Or Entry 1 takes place before he was a proxy thingy

Perhaps TO was seeking someone of certain qualities for some unrevealed purpose and Alex fit the bill.
Or maybe Alex just stole his bike.

Maybe the operator thinks Alex was following him. It would be quite funny if the operator was saying to himself "Why is this guy following me? Why does he keep filming me? I've got to find out what this guy wants."

My theory is that the Operator stalked everyone in that area and no one was supposed to be aware that he existed. Alex catching the thing on camera and being made aware of its existence being the game changer.

It's implied that Alex, Tim and Jessica were all stalked as children, despite growing up separately. Which I guess is kinda strange?

Given the fact that Alex was fine (according to his friends) up until the filming of Marble Hornets, it's safe to assume that the former is completely false. He most likely was attracted to Alex because Alex was using cameras for filming and picked him up. It's also implied the only reason alex was able to find out about the operator was because of his filming.
They pretty much spelled it out that Tim was the reason the operator is around. If it turns out that's false, than about 1/3 of season 3 was a red herring

I feel like we're gonna see a video of Tim sacrificing Alex or something on this tape. It's either that or something Jay's hiding, but it really can't be anything else because if it was one of Alex's tapes he'd have taken it and hid it far away.
Also I just thought of something neat regarding entry 40-41-42-43
If Alex was lying about his motives, then entry 40 was another attempt to sacrifice Jay to the operator, but it failed because Jay went in on his own and got away. Afterwards, Alex knows the operator is expecting a sacrifice so he sacrifices himself by walking into it. He decides against sacrificing Jay because he thinks that if Jay is capable from escaping the operator even once, it shows he isn't as sick as the rest of them, and that he may be the key to helping him find Amy.
Given the fact that at any time, Alex could have knocked Jay out and fed him to the operator during entry 43, I think he was telling the truth.

Tim seemed pretty fine to everyone. No one knew that he was putting a mask and being crazy every so often. Maybe Alex wasn't fine and had similar problems as Tim?

What did that prove? Like I said, Tim usually seems pretty normal. Go rewatch entry 15 and 9.
