Regardless of how reprehensible the target, I'm not sure an organisation creating fake user generated content to hijack a brand is cool.

@aral But then who do we trust? Surely we need the 'good guys' to be better than that. Or does the end justify any means? I'm not sure. -
@roanlavery That’s one way The Yes Men, without billions, can bring to light the efforts of an evil corporation that does have billions. -
@aral Maybe, I'm playing Devil's Advocate here but part of me feels it's a slippery slope into an abuse of trust. -
@roanlavery For a good purpose. Watch The Yes Men Fix the World and you’ll see that their goals are noble: http://theyesmenfixtheworld.com/ -
@aral I'm not doubting the nobility, but the road to hell is paved with good intentions and all that :) -
@roanlavery Hah, good thing I don’t believe in all that :-P -
@aral Me neither, but you get the point :) - End of conversation
