"Please vote for number XX", "Help to copy the link", "Ask for 99 likes"... Nowadays, this phenomenon is not uncommon in WeChat groups and circles of friends.

What do you think of the phenomenon of collecting likes through online canvassing and bargaining?

Recently, a survey of 1,504 young people who participated in a survey released by the Social Survey Center of China Youth Daily (wenjuan.com) showed that 75.6% of the surveyed young people were troubled by the behavior of bargaining and collecting likes through the circle of friends.

Easy access to personal information and fear of insecurity (63.9%) are the reasons for the troubled young people surveyed.

57.2% of the young people surveyed believed that the act of canvassing and bargaining to collect likes would consume people's feelings.

Nearly 80% of the interviewed young people are disgusted with the act of soliciting votes and collecting likes in the circle of friends

  Li Mingyang, a post-90s working in Beijing, occasionally receives a link from a friend for bargaining and asks for help. He admitted that he is a little disgusted with this kind of behavior, "Although it's just a small matter, if you don't help, you seem to owe others. Again, it’s a very uncomfortable feeling.”

  After 1995, Yang Ting said that what she resented was not the behavior of friends sending links, but the mechanism of merchants asking users to pull people for help.

She had received a link from a friend before, and after she clicked it, the system showed that if she participated, she could also enjoy a certain discount, so she sent the link to others, but in the end found it difficult to complete the task, "This mechanism It is using people's psychology to achieve the purpose of propaganda by pulling people."

  The survey shows that 79.7% of the surveyed young people are disgusted with the act of soliciting votes and collecting likes in the circle of friends, of which 20.1% of the surveyed young people are very disgusted.

Only 13.8% of the surveyed young people said they were not disgusted, and 6.5% of the surveyed young people said they did not feel it.

  Hu Songsong, a post-90s living in Suzhou, feels that various bargaining links are more common now. By inviting friends to click to reduce the price of the product, the contribution value of new users will be greater.

Hu Songsong once downloaded related apps in order to help his family members click on links, but his family members failed to get the advertised rewards.

  According to the survey, 75.9% of the young people surveyed felt that it is common to collect likes through online canvassing and bargaining. The interactive analysis found that the proportion of post-00s who felt that it was common was even higher, at 80.2%.

In addition, 16.6% of the surveyed young people thought it was not common, and 7.5% of the surveyed young people said they did not pay much attention to it.

  Hu Songsong admitted that before clicking on a link, he would first judge the source of the link. If the source is unknown, he would not dare to click. "Many scams are now realized through phishing links, which can quickly obtain personal information, and there is a certain degree of security. risk".

  According to the survey, 75.6% of the young people surveyed admitted that they are troubled by this kind of online canvassing and bargaining to collect likes.

  What troubles do you have with this?

63.9% of the surveyed young people feel that it is easy to obtain personal information and worry about insecurity, and 62.3% of the surveyed young people think that they need to pay attention to the official account or download the app.

Others include: troublesome operation procedures (41.8%), worry about affecting the relationship with each other (34.1%), infrequent contact with each other, and feel a little embarrassed (25.9%).

  Hu Songsong felt that many platforms now collect too much personal information. "For example, if you open a link at random, you will be asked to provide information such as nicknames and avatars. There is no clear specification for collecting information, and it feels unsafe."

57.2% of the surveyed youth believe that the act of canvassing and bargaining to collect likes will drain people's feelings

  Yang Ting said frankly that if others ask her for help, she will have a psychological burden if she does not help or does not help.

Yang Ting feels that this seemingly simple effort has encouraged the spread of online voting to a certain extent, "If someone sends me this kind of link frequently, I will not reply, or set it to do not disturb. , refuse to receive similar information".

  According to the survey, 50.4% of the young people surveyed said that they were forced to participate because of their face.

  "If it's to grab votes or vote for comparison, the more important ones will help. But if it's bargaining, it won't help, because there's not much difference between a point and a point." Zhang Wenyou, who now lives in Beijing, feels that the point is no. The initiative to click on the link is in your own hands. "Emotional maintenance is mutual, and it is also important to speak your mind frankly."

  57.2% of the surveyed young people believe that this kind of online canvassing and bargaining to collect likes will consume people's feelings.

The interactive analysis found that the post-90s generation thinks this way is even higher, at 61.4%.

  Yang Ting agrees with this, "If I send someone such a link, but I don't get a response, I will feel unhappy, but actually think about it carefully, others are not obliged to help, and this kind of 'moral kidnapping' thinking It will destroy the trust between friends and consume each other's feelings."

  Zhang Wenyou feels that everything has two sides.

For friends who usually contact more often, if you often send this kind of link, it will really make you feel disgusted.

But for friends who are not in frequent contact, it actually provides an opportunity for communication, and can talk a few words in this way.

  Hu Songsong believes that real emotions will not disappear because of some trivial matters. The key depends on daily communication. "It is better to understand and respect each other, and try to consider problems from the perspective of each other as much as possible."

  Among the respondents to the survey, 41.6% were male and 58.4% were female.

Post-00s accounted for 26.1%, post-95s accounted for 27.5%, post-90s accounted for 30.0%, and post-85s accounted for 16.4%.
