> using ingenuity to trick money out of americans, that's a recurring theme in the modern world. Fake reviews aren't "ingenuity," they're dishonesty and fraud that exploit a high-trust culture. High-trust cultures are valuable, hard to create, and easy to destroy. The reaction to all this online review fraud is going to be default mistrust and wasted effort by consumers who are going to be forced to constantly second-guessing information or get scammed.
