“Internet Water Army,” -> de inzet van groot aantal betaalde gebruikers, uit China vooral, om websites te overspoelen met comments.
In China, paid posters are known as the Internet Water Army because they are ready and willing to ‘flood’ the internet for whoever is willing to pay. The flood can consist of comments, gossip and information (or disinformation) and there seems to be plenty of demand for this army’s services .
