couldn’t read the whole article, but the first couple paragraphs seem to contradict the headline. ‘~15% of reddit users have encountered corporate astroturfing’ is not the same as ‘15% of content on reddit is corporate astroturfing’.
Reddit gets shittier by the day. Currently, they’re blocking users using a VPN, they’re trying to force you to either login to read, or to stop using a VPN so they can have even more of your data. Reddit should be burned to the ground, it’s a data-harvesting cesspool, run by a bunch of greedy dickheads. I wish everyone would wake up and leave at the same time, destroy their IPO.
There’s a way to bypass the blockade. swap “www” with “old” in the web address and you’re good to go.
I do that, but I don’t like the layout. Thanks though.
Isn’t this website AI generated stuff
Some portion of it likely is. Medium is like Wordpress.com with paywalls.
Medium is a blog hosting site. It’s all user generated and there’s zero editorial control.
Medium? Not that I know, but I don’t keep up with these things.
Did the definition of “trolls” suddenly change or is this author just using it wrong? Corporate astroturfing? Sure that makes sense. Corporate trolling? Not sure I get the point of that.
I think the editor was absent that day.
Yeah, I’ve been to r/movies.
