Kakao currently under investigation due to allegations of reverse viral marketing

Good.

good

I doubt they've got people to write 300 articles about her but probably it's enough to pay off one or two influential reporters/sites/media outlets for everyone else to pick it up

Scary that they would do this regardless

Shit is so low. Smh losers.

The worst part is that they'd do this to a minor, truly no souls

336 articles about Garam alone, jeez.

Garam should sue them for defamation. It blew it up so big that it made the news and has stained her for life.

Not the moralists when people here called her a criminal and no one cared

Garam got done dirty by media and the general public. I feel sorry for the idols under kakao too, they had nothing to do with this but they are the ones getting all the heat, esp ive.

People are now using this as an opportunity to attack any and every other affiliated with Kakao which sucks.

got exposed. But tbh I wouldn't be surprised if other labels do this too or pay for/write positive articles. These days is hard to tell exactly what's going on online news.

They don't need to write 300 articles. Just a small bunch and then let bots/ai copy and repost them on other sites which then picked up and edited reposted. Donald trump friends in Russia likely helped him win his election with all the fake news written and posted all over the world and of course we saw a ton of lies during covid (vaccines causes range of diseases, covid isn't real, 5G networks spread covid etc) being spread over Facebook and Twitter

Oh this is about bots and things like that? Mess, then yeah, I can see that happening, I misunderstood!

Garam the main girl. Garam the true center.

Yes, I love Garam.

Actually it fits right in with being a moralist. Garam was harmed the most and if a giant company like Kakao fanned the flames then it’s only morally just for her to seek justice. Anyone with morals can see that Garam would be justified to sue Kakao if the investigation proves that they were involved.

2 weeks late lol. But yeah......screw Kakao. Specially since they'll just get away with some minor slap-on-the-wrist fine (if even that) and then continue happily making b2illions more like all giant conglomerates do

Kakao would never get behind the bars, the label is just too big and powerful. They can easily bribe everyone behind the scene. And the big 4 would never want to mess with them even their idols get the most hit of this smear campaign.

Q: what is reverse viral marketing?

Q: what is reverse viral marketing?

I tried to figure that out in the previous thread about this but I still don't know

pannchoa translated the term as "forced virality marketing".

My best guess was "making a platform they own appear to be a neutral and unbiased source", because average internet users make negative opinions go viral too, but somehow it only seems like it's punished because it was organized by a company against their competitors, while posing as a neutral source

I don't think it would be illegal if 5 known representatives of Kakao were to tweet this stuff out in organized fashion, but I think somehow it's illegal because it wasn't known who owned the page and people thought it was a neutral source. I'm not sure
