TrollsNews today
RIP Bill Nye
Youtube tags are gone
Obama reddit conspiracy
Good evening and welcome to another episode
of TrollsNews, show that brings you all the
important information about trolls or just
a random drama on the internet.
The first report of today was brought to you
by supersonicultra and it is about the trolling
around Bill Nye - The science guy - yes, that's
him.
On 27th august 2012 group of people on twitter
started tweeting "RIP Bill Nye", of course
since average twitter user is not able to
fact check, many people were lead to believe
that Bill Nye actually died and this became
one of twitter's trending topic.
Soon after facebook pages started to appear,
they were usually named RIP Bill Nye and the
biggest of those has over quater of a million
likes.
Some people were speculating that source of
this fake death rumor was a group of creationists
who didn't like that Bill Nye was talking
against creationism in a video uploaded to
bigthink channel.
Which is somehow possible from the beginning
but it is very likely that this trolling was
soon taken over by other trolls who didn't
care about the video and they just want to
have fun confusing people.
At this point you can still find people posting
posts on facebook, tweeting and arguing that
Bill Nye is alive, although that no one argues
against it, we can consider this trolling
to be quite successful then.
The next report is about the fact that YouTube
decided remove tags from player pages, meta-tags
are still in the video but users can't see
them.
Obviously YouTube is trying to fight the fact
that many youtube users have a tendency to
copy tags from successful videos to get splashes
of the video success.
This way users won't be able to do that anymore,
but maybe it opens a door to another problem,
now users can't see if someone is false tagging
a video and unless youtube has some clever
algorythm to check for tags, we'll end up
with every video being tagged "hot lesbian
kissing".
Spongethrob reported the last thing of today
and it's about Obama doing his ask me anything
on Reddit.
Of course since we're talking here about reddit
it couldn't be without retarded conspiracy.
People were speculating that one of the questions
could have been planted there by Obama's administration.
The proof of that was that the account was
only few minutes old and it was posted really
quick.
Ok, if I was the one who would want to ask
Obama a question, I would first write it somewhere,
then I would create a reddit account, since
I don't have one, and then I would ask the
damn question.
And it would look exactly like this, why does
it have to be a conspiracy all the fucking
time?
That's all for this evening, stay tuned for
more TrollsNews, please subscribe like and
comment this video and please message me if

youtube drama.

safe under the youtube bridge.
