Benj Edwards (Ars Technica) Used Fake Articles to Promote Ponzi Scheme for Conde Nast and Its Client (Marketing)
A week ago: (citing no evidence other than a company talking about its own PR stunt)
And we've not even checked the ones below it yet...
Ars Technica still has a Serial Slopper promoting a giant Ponzi scheme using fake, fabricated news (fabricated by those who are pushing and standing to gain from the scheme). There's no evidence any sanctions were issued.
So perhaps Ars Technica and Conde Nast are perfectly OK with fake news as long as they stand to gain financially [1, 2].
What Ars Technica and Conde Nast do here helps defraud the general public. The Register MS does the same thing. We gave an example 2 days ago (The Register MS selling Microsoft slop, with the veneer of "science").
Slop companies corrupt our media.
Previously, around the same time Conde Nast was paid by Microsoft to create "Ars Technica UK" (its editor admitted this to me!) it assigned a now-convicted paedophile and child rapist to promote Microsoft and attack/slander Microsoft critics. He did this in a dedicated fashion and even came to our IRC channels to vandalise and abuse people.
Stay classy, Ars, with Microsoft... █
