 A '''trolls nest''' is where [[trolls]] plan responses to [[sysop vandalism]], and other forms of [[troll vandalism]].

+It is expected to become a major issue for the [[Consumerium Governance Organization]], as it has already for [[Wikimedia]].  Prominent nests are rare as they are usually secretive.
-== rare visible example ==
-For instance, the highly publicized [[wikipediasucks.com]] is where pro-[[SOLLOG]] [[vandal]]s openly plan [[group vandalism]] against [[Wikipedia]] and its controller [[Bomis]].
-Opinions vary on the righteousness of this response to the many [[Wikimedia]] abuses.  It is not clear whether this is [[troll vandalism]] or [[sysop vandalism]] since [[technological escalation]] is involved.
-In any case the technology and [[trolling techniques]] are the same, regardless of the rationale for this response or the level of secrecy.
-== mostly secret ==
 Most trolls' nests are not so visible or overt in what they do, and exist as [[private web]]s and [[intranet]] services.  For instance [[transnational corporation]]s employ [[funded troll]]s or "[[spin doctor]]s" to spout [[propaganda]] into the [[large public wiki]]s to counter trollish truth-telling.
 See also [[anonymous proxy server]], and other [[troll tool]]s.
