Just can't resist, the most proper word to fit your definition of
"when you apply human traits to non-human objects" would be anthropomorphism.

I would also propose a "netification", like a new word invented for the internet stock chat rooms, such as "Sliderism", to describe an enthusiastic oil or gas stock endorsement which is not always right, but more often right than wrong, buyer beware but he's sure fun to read, etc. etc.
