Twitter's Fake Followers Watching IPO Closely
kraksmoka writes "Is your social media pro 'making it go viral' by pressing a button instead of interacting with a real audience? The purchase and use of fake followers by small to mid-sized social media agencies is rising on Twitter and there is concern that the growth of fake followers can't be stopped. "
Real people are more likely to follow something that seems popular, no matter how broken it is.

Age doesn't bring conservative values so much as some people are cunts who pretended to play for the other team while it supported their interests.
So, a poor student is going to get the support of people with a social conscience. But once you have money, "fuck that shit lol i'm making bank", &c.
Yes exactly. Every scheme has "salt of the earth" people who just want to do an honest day's work, exploitative dickheads at the top, and a mixture half way between the two. That Bible-bashing gun-worshipper is probably just as decent, honest and hardworking as the girl who makes peace signs and sticks flowers in her hair, but they are taught to hate each other.
I'm as far from "poor student" as you can get, so no vested interest here!
If there is anything you should learn with age, it's JUST HOW MUCH you owe to other people, without whom you'd be scraping around in the dirt, no matter your personal opinion of your own genius. If you think that people are sponging off you, you're learning nothing at all, and just taking advantage of others.
