    How would you define “astroturfing”? (I’ll give you a hint: it doesn’t mean “person I disagree with”)

      Organisation or group trying to pass off as a real grassroots level individual advocating for a cause.

      Astroturf is fake grass(roots).

        Ok and how does that definition apply to a user that has posted less than one topical news article per day and zero vote manipulation?
