infobaiting

To lure people into becoming obsessed over something pointless by dangling information about it in front of them, appealing to their need to find out more (see infobating).

People would never have even heard of the Kardashians if the tabloids didn't keep infobaiting them.

I can't stop reading TVTropes, every article keeps infobaiting me into the next one!

Infomining

The process through which a Sociopath (person suffering Anti-social Personality Disorder ) or a malignant Narcissist (Narcissistic Personality Disorder ) gets to know your weaknesses and insecurities in order to fill their database and construct a mental image of who you "truly" are.
This information will be used at a later time, generally to subtly abuse you and drive you insane , but also to obtain as much as possible from you (financially or otherwise ).
This process can be described as "dropping hints" to make you speak about yourself , pretending to reveal a secret to make you reveal yours, invent a hard childhood to see what traumas you have , etc.

Sociopath :"It's hard for me to talk about it, but my mother used to hit me"
Other person -"really ? I shouldn't be surprised , though , childhood is no bed of roses, my uncle used to do things to me...."
Sociopath : "score!! I had great success infomining this idiot!! "
