Why P*rnbots Are Liking Your Instagram Stories - Hype MY

We all get that rush of dopamine whenever we get a social media notification, whether it’s a message, a like, or a comment. The thought of someone putting that much effort to tell you that they liked what you’ve put out, even if it’s just liking your Instagram story, feels so flattering. Except when the person who liked it, might not even be human at all.

If you have a public account on Instagram, you’ve likely encountered random accounts that don’t follow you liking your stories or commenting on your posts. Their usernames usually consist of a generic name_random set of numbers, with sexy photos as their profile photo and their profiles would usually have a suspicious link that leads to dodgy porn sites. While the idea of bots, a.k.

When a bot likes someone’s story, there’s a huge chance that person would click into the bot’s account to see what’s up. And if they happen to click on the link on the account’s bio, they’ll most likely end up on affiliate marketing websites – just porn-related ones. The business model is similar to how influencers on Instagram make money. For example, a fashion influencer will post a picture of a new trendy bag that she’s been carrying around.

Just like how influencers earn money each time someone clicks on their affiliate link to the clothes they’re wearing, porn bots make money from getting you onto porn sites. The business of the affiliate website will pay the controller of the porn bot for generating traffic to their website. Some websites would even bait users into providing their personal information such as their email addresses before showing them the porn.

However, there is also the possibility that people are using a third party website to stalk you. Yes, if you’ve been noticing some bot accounts in your story view lists, it could mean that someone is watching you. Like how some people would make a ‘burner’ account or a finsta to stalk people, instead of using their main account, some have opted for a different approach.
