Not sure why this is downvoted, it is a documented fact that monsanto was paying people to engage on social media forums while pretending to have no affiliation. [1]

I don’t see that claim anywhere in that article, despite how hard it’s reaching to be a hit piece.


Okay, here's the actual court document with a direct quote

"Monsanto even started the aptly-named “Let Nothing Go” program to leave nothing, not even facebook comments, unanswered; through a series of third parties, it employs individuals who appear to have no connection to the industry, who in turn post positive comments on news articles and Facebook posts, defending Monsanto, its chemicals, and GMOs."
