Yeah, it sounds like you may not understand internet trolling. People have gone and will go to great lengths and expenses to troll big corps just for the laughs, internet points, and/or to cause big corps even a little bit of pain.
There’s also a bit of art to trolling, too, which is again part of the fun.
Not sure why this is so surprising.
- Ansil849 6y agoTrolling corporations is a form of asymmetrical warfare. The point is that the troll expands a few resources, to cause the corporation a disproportionate amount of inconvenience. For example, calling in fake pizza orders. Very low-effort for the troll, yet high-yield rewards in trolling the pizza vendor. On the other hand, expanding vastly more money and resources than will cost the corporation in question to neutralize the troll is not successful trolling, it is a failure.
