I should be clear here - I'm not saying Amazon has done a good job. My point is the scammers are going to scam. I've been offered money in exchange for an implicitly good review. I didn't take it but that came with the order of something I bought. That kind of thing is tough to regulate for any company - and there are millions of other ways to do it.
If theres a way to game a system humans will find it.
- Retric 4y agoSure, but my point is Amazon is acting like an accomplice not a victim.
- boringg 4y agoFair take - my original comment deflects blame of Amazon which isn't appropriate. It is responsible - however it isn't wholly responsible for all the scamming nature on it's platform. Maybe the VC playbook obsession about growth>profit>quality that they sold to wall st in the 2010s has a fair bit to drive the internal engine at Amazon.
- JohnFen 4y agoFrom my point of view, I don't care if Amazon is responsible or not. It remains true that Amazon provides a terrible service. The "why" is their problem, not mine.
