sagebait 

The attempted action of baiting someone into knowledge-gaining or wisdom-inciting information.

"Bro, I've been trying to learn how to draw and some guy just sagebaited me so hard into a rabbit hole of art shit... it was worth it, though."

Stagebait

Videos staged (often by couples) to simulate shocking pranks or socially unacceptable behavior for the express purpose of gaining views and attention.

I swear, most of those exploding Amazon boxes are just Stagebait.
