Luscious Ventures Publishes Social Media Villain’s Exposé on Bots, Fake Likes, and Shadowbans
In this episode of Global Economic Press, Alex Brady delves into the fascinating and often murky world of social media manipulation. The discussion centers around a new exposé titled "Framed: A Villain’s Perspective on Social Media," authored by rogue software engineer Tim O’Hearn. The book provides an insider's view of the hidden mechanics behind bots, fake likes, and shadowbans, revealing how these elements contribute to the broader consequences of digital manipulation. O’Hearn's firsthand experience in automating social media follower growth and his work in persuasive technology at a startup offer a unique perspective on the complex relationships between users, platforms, advertisers, and regulators.
Luscious Ventures LLC, a New York-based publisher, announced the release of this eye-opening book, which has already achieved "Number 1 New Release" status on a leading retailer's platform. "Framed" explores the evolution of social media deception, from botnets and fake engagement to shadowbanning and algorithmic bias. The book is available in both paperback and Kindle formats, providing readers with an in-depth analysis of how forgotten social media practices have laid the foundation for today's internet fame-seeking culture.
