This might explain why there's always one or two idiots that still argue in favor of the government and corporations against all logic and common sense.

Seems like a pretty shitty article. The video is a Canadian news clip (so when they say "the government" they mean the Canadian government) and the reference links are sites like Natural News and Occupy, and a NSA link that does not make any reference to paid trolling. There's very little there to back up what they're saying at all that I can see.

I wish that was all they did. I suspect a large percent of the train wreck trip reports were written by them as well. They are actively trying to spread disinformation on drug boards as well as trying to make sure we don't get organized. Every pot legalization group I ever met had these people disrupting everything. They aren't cops and they smoke dope too, they just are paid to cause friction in a group. I could spot them pretty quickly, mainly because people all around them kept getting busted, and everything they touched turned to shit. Ever see a representative of drug legalization and think "wow he really makes us look bad"? His job is to make us look bad.
I am not even paranoid either.

At least corporations are owned by the people.  You can't say that about government.

NPR Orc and Dagger
link

"U.S. and British intelligence agencies have worked to infiltrate networks of violence-prone individuals who might unite for a common cause. And in some cases, the spies are also targeting networks that aren't regional terrorist cells — they're online gaming communities, according to the latest revelation from documents given to the media by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden.

"Exploiting Terrorist Use of Games & Virtual Environments" is the name of a 2008 NSA document being cited in coordinated reports out Monday from The Guardian, ProPublica and The New York Times.

The reports describe spy agencies' push to infiltrate systems that allow millions of people to closely collaborate and even exchange money — all through a veil of alternate identities.

The project involved spies creating identities in networks that include Second Life and World of Warcraft, according to the reports. Another arm of the work is said to have collected massive amounts of data from Microsoft's Xbox Live network and elsewhere."

It's accepted fact that both Apple and Microsoft have been sending in professional trolls to open source software development forums pretty much since the existence of the Internet. Not too much of a stretch to assume national governments are doing something similar--as mentioned, the Canadian federal government is known to utilise such tactics--the day Canada has a "national defense program" that the USA doesn't...
