Passive spam is basically a Facebook or other social network post that has a completely pointless call to action. The defining factor is that the quiz or question is not meant to offer any type of challenge, but instead is simply a tool to arbitrarily increase page reach.
Passive spam consists of stupid quiz-like questions on Facebook that either require some small amount of math or analytical skills (in order to make the people responding feel intelligent...even though they aren't)
Also, the classic "like or my grandmother will die" type posts. In this context the spammer is using the person's good nature to accomplish their goals instead of the person's desire to answer a question (that usually is incredibly simple to figure out).

Antonym to ‘passive aggressive’ but still as childish and/or immature. Example: Your crush walks into the gym. You the passive peaceful mirror your workout according to his/hers ensuring you are in line of sight at least 75% of the time, but at no time do you say hi or initiate any communication because you know you’re a spineless wussy. Moreover, he/she is CLEARLY aware of your presence but refrains from any passive aggressive behavior instead rising above the weakness you fail miserably at.
(At gym)
Hot Gym Patron #1: That guy over there always follows my routine, constantly stares, and always finds some weird way of walking right in front me but acts like it’s always an accident.
Hot Gym Patron #2: So annoying! I cant stand when someone is passive peaceful .
Grow up.

When government takes advantage of its citizens to charge extra fees for better service to the benefit of rich people who can afford it and to the detriment of poor people who can't.
