Is this not illegal?
- CodeCube 8y agoIt should be
- kcbanner 8y agoHow is this any different from paid reviews.
- CodeCube 8y agoMy comment stands, "it should be" ... a paid review is tainted from jump street. At a very minimum, disclosure should be mandated (is this already the case?)
- notatoad 8y agowhether disclosure should be mandated, or already is mandated, these accounts were not hiding the fact that they were amazon representatives. disclosure was done. so what exactly should be illegal? Companies interacting with people on social media? PR in general?
- jhall1468 8y agoIt is disclosed. They have their titles (Amazon FC Ambassador) the Amazon box logo and their names are all @Amazon*. It's completely transparent, which you'd know had you read the article rather than the title. Don't mean to sound harsh, but the amount of comments on here from people that CLEARLY didn't read any of the article is astounding.
- frostwhale 8y agoI believe it is not illegal if they're not withholding who they are or their motivations.
- lainga 8y agoWell, they didn't really try to hide it. The Twitter accounts have a standardised format, all bearing the Amazon smile logo as their background ... identical structures to their bios and the title "FC Ambassador" in their name, followed by a cardboard box emoji.
- cm2012 8y agoYou think it's illegal for companies to transparently respond to customers and critics online?
