I'VE NEVER SEEN GANGNAM STYLE





Takeaway quotes from this exercise:

"It's not sinister, he's just ridiculously charismatic..."

My best mate whilst insiting I HAD to watch it (because "it's fantastic")

"A BILLION views...!? HOW has he done that?!"The only way it would be possible for him to do that is if YouTube (i.e. Google) allowed him to do that.

The exact same way that The Innocence of Muslims remained on Recommended / Featured / Heavy Rotation on YouTube garnering in excess of 10 million hits within a couple of days following the Benghazi assasult on 9 11 12, in spite of a personal appeal to the President of Google by the President of the United States to enforce their own content and hosting guidelines about offensive material and take it down - Google refused.

The same with KONY 2012: a heuristic analysis of the viral spread of growth fails to account for the speed and extent of it's popularity.

Common sense tells you, it just isn't possible. Not without help.

"Is that a children's playground...?!"

"Sauna.... close up of a bum.... oh, it's in his mouth... stables...."

Etc., etc.
