This kind of falls under advertising, doesn't it? It's in the same territory.i went that low. doing a job as "content creator" for an online magazine/portal. we had quota for the amount of articles we had to vomit out. it was terrible, completely drained me, made me feel unhuman, the worst was being schooled on how to come up with better clickbait titles. they fired me after 6 months and i'm glad they did. once, they literally asked me if i had the motivation and incentive to make it in the company or if i just want to go around and have fun (going to bars, and partys and hanging out they were implying).
ah yeh, i guess it does. it was to create as much traffic and interaction on the website as possible. they called it "seo", search engine optimalization, always thought it was pseudo-science but everybody thought you could somehow influence the google results.This kind of falls under advertising, doesn't it?
