SPAM is Ruining the World Wide Web and We Need to Talk About That

The World Wide Web (WWW) has a pandemic of misinformation, but to make matters worse a lot of sites have turned into spamfarms, sometimes shrewdly disguised as "news", "reviews" etc.

#IAM is no posting pure #SPAM disguised as 'articles' and 'interviews' (this is one of many); #JUVE , IAM, #ManagingIP and other such sites became #spamfarms disguised as "news" sites https://www.iam-media.com/survey/iam-global-leaders/2022/article/katja-sorensen http://techrights.org/wiki/index.php/IAM

"In my practice, freedom-to-operate analyses, monitoring competitor rights and hence guiding companies in how to navigate through competitors’ patent rights have become everyday work."

Over time more and more sites that used to be OK -- and which I used to follow closely! -- have become #spamfarms (sponsored 'articles', affiliate 'marketing' etc.). It's frustrating. The #www is dying, diluting by spam disguised as info.

#spamfarms capitalising on "linux" 'training' or 'certifications' are plaguing the #www ... and they're not even about #gnu #linux
