Counter C00137: Pollute the AB-testing data feeds

  • Summary: Polluting A/B testing requires knowledge of MOEs and MOPs. A/B testing must be caught early when there is relatively little data available so infiltration of TAs and understanding of how content is migrated from testing to larger audiences is fundamental.

  • Playbooks: Playbook 1: Promote damp squibs. Within a known TA promote/inflate crappy off-brand memes which are unlikley to resonate. Playbook 2: Detect early trending/engagement and undermine the content by responding with 5Ds, toxic community behaviour, satirical responses, etc. Playbook 3: If adtech is used, fake clicks and engagements on the content.

  • Metatechnique: M008 - data pollution

  • Resources needed:

  • Belongs to tactic stage: TA11
