The problem is conflating influencers and review outlets. These are two very different things although influencers do everything they can to blurry the lines.
- z3c0 3y agoIt was deliberate - maybe you realize that, but "conflating" is something usually done by mistake. Review outlets are more akin to journalists, in that their job is to sort through the noise to help improve awareness for all. Influencers are a new breed of advertisers and propagandists, which are far more appealing for commercial goals. Don't need all that "truth" and "integrity" getting in the way.
