NY AG Determines"paid for" followers and social engagement is illegal READ article here

Hi all, just came across this article about influencers and paid for followers and engagement. Thought some might be interested in reading it as it may have an impact on the future of internet marketing. This is no longer about violating a platforms terms of service, but defining what actions are legal. Hope I posted this in the right place, go easy, I'm just trying to help...

Cheers!

Hmmmmm. Looks like people are starting to clamp down. Wondering if this only goes in effect for media businesses in the state of NY?

MY concern is that this is just the beginning. Unfortunately in this country, trends seems to start at the coasts and move inland. Only time will tell.
