El siguiente texto trata sobre ese tema. Léelo y contesta a las preguntas que aparecen a continuacién: Everyone knows that big corporations use the information on social networks to find out what the latest market trends are, based on what users like or dislike. It’s an incredibly valuable tool for marketers. In fact, a lot of them consider it the most reliable source of data for their research However, on a smaller scale, anyone can manipulate the information on the Internet in their own interest. Say someone opens a new restaurant or a hotel. They can sign up toa social network under thousands of invented identities and start raving about this new place and, at the same time, pretend to try to keep it secret from other users. This usually makes the place more appealing, since it makes the place seem «underground» or clandestine. Doing this, they get real clients to come to their restaurant or hotel and later leave real feedback ontine. If that feedback isn’t good, they can always counter it by inputting some fake positive feedback of their own. 1. How can you know what kind of information is reliable? 2. Do you believe the information we receive is always inevitably biased depending on ‘the source? 3. Can you name at least 5 positive aspects and 5 negative ones about the most popular social networks?
