Manipulating social media platform algorithms to improperly increase content exposure or influence is a violation of platform regulations and ethical standards, will destroy the platform ecology and fairness, and should not be encouraged and used. However, understanding these violations can help to better prevent and maintain the healthy environment of the platform. The common ones are： ### False interaction 1. **Machine brush volume** -Use automated programs to simulate real user behavior and generate a large amount of interactive data such as likes, comments, and shares. For example, by writing scripts to control a large number of fake accounts, and regularly like specific content, the algorithm mistakenly thinks that the content is very popular, thereby increasing its weight in the recommendation system. 2. **Buy fans and follow** -Purchase a large number of fake accounts from informal channels to follow an account or content. These fake fans and followers cannot produce real interaction, but will cause the number of fans and followers of the target to increase significantly in a short period of time. The algorithm may believe that the content has a high attractiveness and influence based on these false data, and then give more exposure. ###Content fraud 1. **Title party and bait content** - Make exaggerated and misleading headlines to attract users to click. For example, the title claims to be "shocking!" This secret makes you rich overnight”, but the content has nothing to do with the title or is of extremely low value. Users may leave quickly after clicking, resulting in a high bounce rate. However, the algorithm may judge such content as popular due to the high initial click-through rate and continue to give exposure. 2. **Maliciously inducing interaction** -Deliberately set some inducing questions or topics in the content, such as “Do you think this star is the ugliest?" Come and comment", forcing users to participate in the interaction, creating a false illusion of activity, in order to defraud the favor of the algorithm. ###Batch operations that violate platform rules 1. **Frequent release of low-quality content** -Publish a large number of content that lacks substantial value and is shoddy in a short period of time, in an attempt to overwrite quality by quantity, occupying the recommended resources of the algorithm. Although the quality of these content itself is not high, due to the high frequency of publishing, it may gain a certain amount of exposure in the algorithm. 2. **Use platform vulnerabilities for batch operations** -Some unscrupulous operators will look for system vulnerabilities in social media platforms, and use the vulnerabilities to perform bulk account registration, content publishing, or interactive operations by writing programs to disrupt the normal order of the platform and obtain improper exposure. For example, it has been discovered that some platforms have a vulnerability in the account registration verification link, which facilitates the use of this vulnerability to register a large number of fake accounts in bulk, and then use these accounts for illegal operations.
