Federal Fake Review Ban
By Leo Gura - October 23, 2024
Breaking news: US Federal government has passed a ban on fake reviews!
This is a nice step forward by Lina Khan at the FTC.
Unfortunately Republicans and the ideological right-wing Supreme Court want to gut all FTC regulations, and all Federal agency regulations. The goal is to make all such regulations unconstitutional in the near future. Which is another simple example how the MAGA right-wing is terrible. MAGA claims to be populist but in practice they are stooges for corporate power. The right-wing wants “freedom” for companies to create fake reviews and paid reviews. That’s what they mean when they say “freedom”: freedom to scam the consumer. And hey, yeah… that is freedom. Freedom for you to get fucked. Such is the counter-intuitive nature of freedom.
So that’s one small step forward for consumers, one giant leap backward by the corrupt Supreme Court.
