"With more than 100 million views in six days, Kony 2012, a 30-minute documentary about Ugandan rebel leader Joseph Kony, has become the most viral video in history, according to one researcher.\nIn a blog post, Visible Measures found Kony outpaced other record-setting viral videos. For instance, the video featuring  Susan Boyle on Britain's Got Talent in 2009, hit 70 million views in six days. Old Spice's \"Responses\" campaign didn't hit 70 million until five months after it launched.\n\nVisible Measures got its figures by tracking not just the original Vimeo version of Kony, but also responses to the video. By March 8, three days after Kony went live, there were 200 such responses, which ran six minutes on average. The video has also netted more than 500,000 comments. \nDespite the rapid rise of Kony 2012, the video has brought a shower of criticism to Invisible Children, the organization behind it. Many of the negative critiques have been targeted at Invisible Children\u2019s practices as an organization, not whether Joseph Kony, the leader of the Lord\u2019s Resistance Army, is a war criminal.\n\nSEE ALSO: Documentarians: KONY 2012 Achieved Its Goal\nIn particular, a Tumblr blog called Visible Children, outlined how just 32% of Invisible Children's money went to direct services, while the rest went to staff salaries and other overhead. \nInvisible Children responded with a blog post outlining its expenses. The post didn't dispute the 32% figure, but illustrated how another 26% went to \"awareness programs.\"\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
