Alright pol, I work for a small time content creation site that conducts what is known as digital canvassing.
We have three main services we provide.
Data-mining, mainly for products. Often rather benevolent things such as response to dog food or clothing advertisements on social media. This is typically done manually however passive data collection greatly speeds up the process of painting a picture for investors as to what people are and are not interested in buying. This is my department
As the name implies this is the internet equivalent of looking at a bowl of goat guts and trying to figure out which way the internet’s winds will be blowing within a certain time frame. Often goes hand in hand with companies who hold a steak in sites like youtube and twitch. Think about trying to predict what genre of game, movie or media will be popular in the future.
Literally paid shills who go about and write positive things about products. A certain animal rights group in particular likes to use this as a way to add credibility to their advertising.
Now these three fields make up the greater whole of our company and for the most part, people who sign up tend to work in one of three fields for eight-ten weeks at a time. We batch hire using sites like indeed.com and will bring in a bakers dozen employees at a time. The turnover rate is rather high with all but say two or three members of a hiring group being allowed to renew their contracts with the company.
Now because of this turnover rate, there is a NDA in effect for any member whom is tasked with writing about a product. Let’s take a brand of paper towels to use as an example. For a few weeks a batch of employees will write positive things on the product, some of it genuine as we are often sponsored by the companies that make these products and as such are given free samples.
Now normally nobody would not even bother bringing up the mind numbing task of scanning social media posts and writing reviews, however in the past three weeks things have changed at our company. We have gone from focusing namely on products and services and instead to news media.
What is essentially being done is that we are being paid to write filler for topics on political events and then pass it off for sale to news organizations. This ussually leads to a number of different outlets like a local news paper basically parroting what is said on the local news talk radio nearly word for word. As much of what is written is recycled.
These last few weeks are the closing days at my company however they have brought me here. I have lurked and posted, often being called a faggot and a number of other phrases that used to bother me. However I have grown to enjoy the morbid humor of this site and as such figured I would confirm what many of you already suspect on this site.
There are artificial threads being posted with the explicit purpose of allowing for the creation of hit pieces.
Inb4 a thread died for thisAttached below is the thread I killed.
Inb4 why should we believe youbecause a number of you niggers are confusing alphabet agency accelerationism with what are posts being made by a bunch of stoned losers sitting in an office in Austin Texas. I don’t doubt for a minute the alphabet agencies are here however I do doubt that they want lone wolf insurgents here. Wouldn’t it make more sense that they would prefer organizations that they are able to infiltrate and turn into honey pots?
