Status Labs

Status Labs is a reputation management company.[1] Its co-founders ran a public relations company, Wiki-PR, which was banned from editing Wikipedia.[1] In 2014, concerns were raised that an employee offered pay to a freelance journalist to write an article about a client.[1][2] In 2015, Status Labs' CEO reportedly resigned from that position after being blamed for the demolition of a piñata store.[3] The company provided support for Melissa Click for the issues that occurred during the 2015–16 University of Missouri protests.[4]
