While influencers on social media are advocating for products, deinfluencers are encouraging users to refrain from buying those same products. We introduce an influence maximization model that captures unique aspects of the interaction between influencers and deinfluencers. We then use the model on both synthetic and real-world networks to explore different strategies for choosing an initial deinfluencers seed set affects the impact of both influencers and deinfluencers.
