  It’s a good thing I pay very little attention to online reviews. Amazon is another service whose reviews are for sale. Fuck all this corporate manipulation.

    It’s just shitty that this exists. I think a year of jail for every incident of manipulation would be awesome.

  I think suspicion started to settle in once movie trailers started advertising their RT scores.

  I suspected as much recently. Add this to this list of enshitified things that needs replacement with a non-corporate version.
