Inside Of A Chinese Click Farm

Guy Gets Inside A Chinese Click Farm And Holy Crap, That's A Lot Of Phones

​Turns out if you want to run a business where you rate a bunch of apps and write fake reviews, you can't just spoof having a bunch of phones — you actually need the phones. And so that's what we have here: a room full of phones relentlessly rating apps and writing BS reviews because everything in life (and particularly on the internet) is a lie.

A Russian man visited a Chinese click farm. They make fake ratings for mobile apps. He said they have 10,000 more phones.

A Russian Went Inside A Chinese Click-Farm: This Is What He Found

On the day when Snapchat erased billions of market cap from investors (and founders) accounts - as the MAUs-means-money model seems to break - we thought it worthwhile taking another glimpse into the hush-hush world of 'click-farms' and the fakeness of the latest social network fads.

So, if they're not human, where do all those "likes," "retweets," and "followers" lighting up your social media accounts from?

Thanks to this Russian gentleman - who visited a Chinese click farm, where they make fake ratings for mobile apps and other things like this - we now know...

He said they have 10,000 more phones just like these.

As we concluded previously, the bottom line is simple: "The illusion of a massive following is often just that," said Tony Harris, who does social media marketing for major Hollywood movie firms, said he would love to be able to give his clients massive numbers of Twitter followers and Facebook fans, but buying them from random strangers is not very effective or ethical. And once the prevailing users of social networks grasp that one of the main driving features of the current social networking fad du jour is nothing but a big cash scam operating out of a basement in the far east, expect both Facebook and shortly thereafter, Twitter, to go the way of 6 Degrees, Friendster and MySpace, only this time the bagholders will be the public. Because "it is never different this time." The only certain thing: someone will promptly step in to replace any social network that quietly fades into the sunset.

Inside China's phoney 'click farm': Tiny office uses 10,000 handsets to send fake ratings and 'likes' for boosting clients' online popularity.

I'm right there with you...I've never been on FB, twitter, myspace, or any other social site unless you count the sift.

I do get your point about it being integral to the success of movements like the Arab Spring, and I can support using social media for that kind of organization, I just think that's the exception rather than the norm.

I took this as a jab at people who think retweeting IS action, not the precursor TO action. They seem to be a majority today, a statement I base on little more than third hand experience and biased reports.

Well it's harsh but I think Twitter, Facebook, Kik, Snapchat, younow (such turned into CP nude camgirls like stickam), and other such use should be punishable by death.

Every time someone logs into Facebook a random car instantly drives by taking them out.

But if you watch, you'll notice a hint in the license tag, "myspace-1"

:-P

I just started the third season today. It's still got it's clever moments but the humor hasn't been as successful for me since the first season. A couple episodes caused me to think of it as the American Trailer Park Boys. Thankfully they still have some great moments in there so I'm hoping that they've been on so long means they're consistently better than average.

It's been a shock to my senses though with all the "ancient" history. The episode where they mentioned MySpace caused me to go look up when the show started to make sure they weren't talking about myspace ironically.

I really love this song. "Until You're mine" is an old Ceremony song from the MySpace days. All of Paul's work is amazing. Thank you so much for always upvoting his work!

I liked this much more than Until you're mine.

What are the approved video hosts? (Sift Talk Post)

lucky760 says...

Facebook?

Huh... Is that similar to MySpace or maybe Friendster? It should be expected that some lesser-known websites wouldn't be on our list of accepted video hosts.

@speechless - Can you PM me the embed code you're trying to use? Please enclose it in <code> code tags </code> so it will be properly formatted.
