Go back 20 years and you'll see folks complaining about workers saying Hello to them and Asking if they need help when closer. Both twitter and bsky go all 'just block trolls, don't retweet/resky them, starve them of attention', but then the same people are so desperate to get their dunks in and ???

There's a Gibson novel where they meet a gig worker whose job is literally to look like a high flier, flirt with people in bars, and slip [your product here] into the conversation. I wouldn't be surprised at all if it's now real! I think they freak out and quit when they realise how many people are doing the same thing back to them.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if it's now real! This exact thing happened to me earlier this year. Big casual nerd event with no door control, group chatting at a long bar height table, some guy in his 20s sits down and tunes in and eventually slips in a pointed comment about some investment service that is totally block chain. Could have been newly turned on to it and obsessing, going for a referral, maybe just feeding the pyramid, but it sure as poo poo wasn't subtle. E: except for the high flier bit, factory standard bro.
