WoNoBlog's best read posts of 2020

In the late winter of 2019 some trolls, entering the Internet through the TOR network or by some other way making it impossible for Google to ascertain the geolocation of readers, started clicking on posts on the blog, inflating reading numbers beyond the believable. This results in a deflated list because there's no real value any longer in showing the list. In the summer of 2019, coincidentally or not with my holiday in Eastern Europe, they left for several weeks. Soon after my return the trolls returned and kept up their shady business until late January of this year. Since then they are gone. Dismantled? Moved on to pester other blogs? I don't know. Neither do I know what the concept or business model behind the thousands upon thousands of clicks is.

As it is a tradition, I put the list to you any way on the last day of the year; for what it's worth. As you will notice not one post after mid-January is mentioned. Just like you will not find a single post from 2020 in the overall list of the almost nine years this blog exists. The 2020 trolling stopped days short of making that possible. So here they are. And should you have read one of these post at the time, then at least we of WoNoBlog have the consolation that you are hidden within these numbers as well.

I know, this list looks horrible with all the Wo.'s and one .No in the title. Let's hope that at the end of 2021 we are able to present a more normal looking list once again.
