‘The Dark Knight Rises’ Viral Campaign: Gotham Observer And New Tech Company Michael Lee, June 22, 2012June 22, 2012 Though the viral campaign for The Dark Knight Rises may not be as elaborate or exciting as its predecessor, but it’s still a great tool to use to drive interest for the film.

There is also a patent that allows to wipe out your digital footprint. Again this could be linked to Catwoman.Other than that, the stories don’t have any significance.
