Audience Capture
Audience capture is a self-reinforcing feedback loop that involves telling one's audience what they want to hear and getting rewarded for it.
I may have introduced the concept of Audience Capture, because I've been worrying about the same thing from the beginning. You know, I think I've counseled many people that you have to put poisonous tweets for the people who follow you, who you wish would not follow you, you know, you have to make sure in some sense, that they understand that you're not there to flatter them.
