- lallysingh 6y ago.. responsibility? Google? I don't see how this would hurt their advertisers.
- yuliyp 6y agoResponsibility for what, exactly? They don't have a responsibility to publish any particular review in the store. They're free to include/exclude/weight the data they receive to give you star ratings for apps in any way they'd like. Vote clumps like this one tend to make star ratings less trustworthy as a measure of the true quality of an app, so I'd expect an app store operator to discount them.
- suyash 6y agoresponsibility for maintaining the integrity of app reviews
- yuliyp 6y agoFair enough. There's a tension here between integrity and usefulness that is interesting, though. If I were to put myself into their shoes I'd be hesitant to commit to a specific public-facing policy for filtering ratings and reviews, though.
