Sounds unethical
- XCSme 6y agoIsn't this what this post is all about?
- akudha 6y agoHow did you reach this conclusion? OP never asked for unethical ideas. I interpreted "but you'd not talk about them" as "not to attract competition", not "unethical or illegal" BTW, writing fictional reviews for money is not only unethical, it can be illegal too
- AznHisoka 6y agoI decided to put it out there because it was exactly what the OP asked. It’s something I would rather not talk about. Whether you think it’s unethical/illegal is up to you of course. For what it’s worth, i am no longer involved with this today.
- M5x7wI3CmbEem10 6y agohow/why illegal?
- amelius 6y agoGoogle Search should be smarter about these kinds of practices.
- Minor49er 6y agoUnfortunately, this is a very hard problem to solve. Google would have to be aware of GP in advance, would have to know their nature, and would have to know that they weren't someone who was given access to the new products early to review. If anything, it would have to be up to those companies selling the product to look for early reviews but even then, they'd have to make sure that GP wasn't a legitimate reviewer
- ta17711771 6y agoWhy?
- thanksforfish 6y agoA product review for something they only heard about? They didn't actually buy the product, try it out. Its lying and misleading visitors.
