Are LostSnail and DDH make believing they are part of this group of paid trolls?????THE TESLA TROLL ARMIESInside Elon Musk’s Troll Army. How it Works!
You find their “Platoons” from Russia to Nigeria to Malaysia to Germany. Elon Musk’s “Tesla Fan Boys” turn out to actually be an international hired army of blogger trolls who are paid to hype up Musk’s Companies.
Whenever a news journal exposes the dark side of Tesla, or Musk, his Troll Armies, along with partner Google, go to work flooding the internet with smoke-screen stories designed to hype up the stock valuation in order to support stock skims and pump-and-dump operations with the stock value.
In the recent Ellen Pao Vs. Kleiner Perkins sex abuse lawsuit, Musk silent partner John Doerr borrowed the Troll Army from Musk in order to flood Pao’s own blog: REDDIT, with horrific harassing troll comments calling her “an ugly bitch”, “A gold-digging whore” and thousands of other lovely comments. The sheer surge of Ellen Pao attack comments compared to all other comment volume, in the same time period, proved it was a hired Troll Attack, and pointed the source back to the only place it could have come from.

Former workers tell how hundreds of bloggers are paid to flood forums and social networks
Former workers tell how hundreds of bloggers are paid to flood forums and social networks at home and abroad with anti-western and pro-Kremlin comments.
Just after 9pm each day, a long line of workers files out of 55 Savushkina Street, a modern four-storey office complex with a small sign outside that reads “Business centre”. Having spent 12 hours in the building, the workers are replaced by another large group, who will work through the night.The nondescript building has been identified as the headquarters of Russia’s “troll army”, where hundreds of paid bloggers work round the clock to flood Russian internet forums, social networks and the comments sections of western publications with remarks praising the president, Vladimir Putin, and raging at the depravity and injustice of the west.

The Kremlin’s ‘cyber army’ is gaining increasing notoriety, but similar tactics are used to influence opinion around the world
The Guardian spoke to two former employees of the troll enterprise, one of whom was in a department running fake blogs on the social network LiveJournal, and one who was part of a team that spammed municipal chat forums around Russia with pro-Kremlin posts. Both said they were employed unofficially and paid cash-in-hand.
They painted a picture of a work environment that was humourless and draconian, with fines for being a few minutes late or not reaching the required number of posts each day. Trolls worked in rooms of about 20 people, each controlled by three editors, who would check posts and impose fines if they found the words had been cut and pasted, or were ideologically deviant.
The LiveJournal blogger, who spent two months working at the centre until mid-March, said she was paid 45,000 roubles (£520, $790) a month, to run a number of accounts on the site. There was no contract – the only document she signed was a non-disclosure form. She was ordered not to tell her friends about the job, nor to add any of them to the social media accounts she would run under pseudonyms.
“We had to write ‘ordinary posts’, about making cakes or music tracks we liked, but then every now and then throw in a political post about how the Kiev government is fascist, or that sort of thing,” she said.
Scrolling through one of the LiveJournal accounts she ran, the pattern is clear. There are posts about “Europe’s 20 most beautiful castles” and “signs that show you are dating the wrong girl”, interspersed with political posts about Ukraine or suggesting that the Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny is corrupt.

Instructions for the political posts would come in “technical tasks” that the trolls received each morning, while the non-political posts had to be thought up personally.
“The scariest thing is when you talk to your friends and they are repeating the same things you saw in the technical tasks, and you realise that all this is having an effect,” the former worker said.
Marat, 40, worked in a different department, where employees went methodically through chat forums in various cities, leaving posts.
“First thing in the morning, we’d come in, turn on a proxy server to hide our real location, and then read the technical tasks we had been sent,” he said.
The trolls worked in teams of three. The first one would leave a complaint about some problem or other, or simply post a link, then the other two would wade in, using links to articles on Kremlin-friendly websites and “comedy” photographs lampooning western or Ukrainian leaders with abusive captions.
