We've come to think of internet trolling as the use of aggressive language to abuse people online. Henna Paaki at Aalto University would like us to broader our understanding and consider "covert behavior". #CSCW2024 This is trolling that uses manipulation and norm violation to get people involved with pointless, but sometimes harmful, discussions.
