Avenging Clickbait


Have you ever seen an article you normally would not click on but the fallacy like impression it gives off just makes you want to click on it to test its integrity? Boom! that's click bait for you. I, like many others, are unfortunately victims to clickbait cases. But why do we feel compelled to click the mouse or phone screen when we know the hidden truth behind these mediocre attempts for attention? What does the person behind the click bait benefit?

There are answers I will never be able to give you as to why, although in this article you may find some of it humorous as to how they attempt to stop it, or frustrate them." In an interview with Bored Panda, the (Stop Clickbait) team said since last year, they’ve begun sending potatoes to some of the worst clickbait offenders.
