    “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

      Interesting - and not a bad idea as there are gazillions of "fake" or "sponsored" reviews. I was offered $50 to review a pillow. There are also a lot of sites that do the "top 10 best" of products where it's all fake. It would be nice to be able to trust reviews, but I'm not sure the genie can be put back in the bottle.

        Yup, I am not sure how to stop it. Like Kluurs, I have been offered a free product or refund of purchase after I left a "5 star" review.

        The products were coming from China, so I dont think that they would be too fearful of such a law.

        But, hopefully it will have some impact.
