what is the fine line between 'growth hacking' and fraud?

e.g, Reddit bootstrapped with many 'fake' users engaging with each other

building far.quest & @wieldlabs.eth. cofounder at miy.com ventures. FID #274. Previously Square/Cash App. https://hiimnico.xyz/

reddit didn't sell the company or raise capital while it only had fake users afaik.

_disclosures_ is the line? you cannot mislead when disclosing in any form of due diligence

disclosure is the word I was looking for!
