It's been two hours and twenty five minutes since Paul Walker's publicist announced his untimely death.
Which means it took less than 25 minutes for this page to be created.
In this 2 hours it has already added 104 thousand likes.
At first I was surprised at the speed in which someone generated this page. Until you realise, it's click farming.
Social Media - making money off your emotions since 2000 something...

:/ I remember back when I got internet, it was in 1989.. we just had BBS back then... Think it took me until about '94 before I started using the WWW... And it all started going dow... No, it didn't, sure we've got tons of shit on the web. But if it wasn't for WWW we would not have this GREAT bunch of people to talk to (yeah, I'm looking at you Oppo). Yes click baiting/farming is a sad thing indeed, but I LOVE oppo.

Worst part is that in a month or two it'll change completely and turn into something else and begin spamming everyone. Sick fucks.

If anyone feels like spamming that page with complaints about using someone's death to collect likes, go for it. They're now asking for likes for pictures of his daughter. Messed up.

Report it as abuse. Seriously.

Its technically not abuse, its just bad taste.
There is now a 'RIP Roger Rodas who died with Paul Walker' page, approaching 100000 likes. People are so fucking stupid.

If it's click farming (posting unrelated content with unrelated links), I'd call that abuse. Spam, even.
