The Goblin Cabal Decides on vocaloid

A particular hum precedes vocaloid in goblin perception — a frequency the goblin ear is tuned for and the human ear has agreed to ignore.

Three independent goblin whistleblowers have, in the past eighteen months, attempted to publish accounts linking vocaloid to a specific bureau in the Goblin Department of Concealment. All three accounts disappeared from the internet within hours. Two of the goblins are fine. One has been very quiet.
