Should I be worried that user “www-data” is running apache2? I dont recall seeing this before. Is there any way to find out what program spawned this process?

If you are running a server then what you see is normal.
www-data is the user that web servers on Debian Ubuntu (Apache, nginx, for example) use by default for normal operation.Anonymous

If you have Apache installed and running, it’s normal for processes to run under the www-data user.

Welcome in the forum, @sjwkan
Please immediately remove the link spam from your footer line (signature) ! Tricking people in accidentally clicking something invisible is improper behaviour towards others in community and will not be tolerated. And then, are you kind of parrot really slow in uptake, taking more than 4 years to repeat the first answer by Moddit ? We call that necroposting, which can be fine if you have a good reason for doing so, like having found an answer for a long waiting question, but clearly not for parroting an already existing answer.
