  "A sockpuppet is an online identity used for purposes of deception. The term -- a reference to the manipulation of a simple hand puppet made from a sock -- originally referred to a false identity assumed by a member of an internet community who spoke to, or about himself while pretending to be another person." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sockpuppet_(Internet) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sockpuppet_(Internet)
