    Abstract

    In this paper we seek to understand how social media influence the emergence and evolution of brand communities. We suggest that the mechanisms of peer-to-peer crowd-enabling mechanisms that drive large-scale social protest movements like The Occupy Movement or the Arab Spring offer an interesting starting point. We focus on the emergence of an instance of anti-brand community, the result of significant service failures, in the Australian telecommunications industry
