Clickbait

Definitions

Content framed with exaggerated, misleading, or curiosity-driven titles and hooks designed primarily to attract clicks rather than to communicate accurately. In tech media, clickbait is often criticized for distorting nuanced technical topics into shallow hype or outrage.
In plain English: A headline or piece of content designed mainly to get clicks by overstating or teasing.
Example: "The benchmark article was pure clickbait: dramatic headline, tiny dataset, and no methodology worth trusting."
