So, news, fake news, trolls, counter-trolls, content farms, revenge porn scanning (?), surveillance and censorship, large-internet-property moderation (special classes for special sites), content curation, “influencers” (???), propaganda production... All these mind crimes should just fall under a single umbrella class of worker called “motherfucking internet bullshit artistry (all levels)” ...and oh yeah, the article neglects one of the most recent sub-classes: child video troll (and of course child video troll moderator (scanner?) AND coming soon (!!!) child video counter-troll, as discussed over here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15670109 When will we get to see child news and fake child news? Seriously though, if 90% of everything is bullshit [0], where’s the distinction between good and evil? It’s just regional sports teams from what I can tell, and just as pointless.
