You could maybe pick 20/30/40 random subjects to fake a prolonged interest in, and really focus on those, maybe swapping some out over time. In any case, I think one has to pump enough fake volume through to make fake interest look like real interest. But then the opposite problem comes up - excessive requests for one topic might signal fakeness. Maybe you could have fake traffic be produced proportionally to real traffic?
- pps43 9y agoAdvertisers would still win, though. Instead of showing you ads for 10,000 subjects of which one interests you, they are now showing you ads for 2 subjects of which one interests you. Much better targeting. And if they want to link your profiles from elsewhere, two interests of which one is fake is still pretty powerful.
