Significantly slows down firefox, does data collection on EVERYTHING, not just relevant websites

Aside from the questionable data collection and accuracy of the reporting, this add-on *significantly* increases the load time of the amazon page. I cannot recommend this.

All those negative comments from Amazon Scammer Accounts. Dont trust those

a garbage that collects all your data

Eine an sich schöne und hilfreiche Erweiterung, auch wenn die Bewertungen teilweise fragwürdig sind. Es fließt mehr in die Bewertung ein als man erahnen würde, etwas mehr Transparenz (zur Bewertung der Reviews) erhält man auf der "Fakespot" eigenen Seite zum jeweiligen Produkt, diese gilt es generell mal zu besuchen, denn oft sind Bewertungen veraltet und führen bei Reanalyse zu komplett neuen Ergebnissen, so wurde schon eine "F" zu einer "A" - wenn auch nicht oft.

Doesn't function at `addons.mozilla.org`.

This add-on has a built-in conflict-of-interest by redirecting you to other products if it says the reviews on a site are unreliable.

Thing is, it is NOT POSSIBLE to determine whether reviews are fake or not. It is certainly possible to write a review and this app thinks it is fake, thereby taking away any voice consumers may have.

Also, if certain people write reviews that are bot-like or sound like a fake review, their reviews are not counted.

Too many things to go wrong with this, and the collection of data and inherent problems with the app making money by sending you to other sites make this add-on a non-starter.

This is not a fake review!!

Required data collection is a non-starter.

It's not perfect as the company still needs to make money by obtaining some information and selling it. But in return, it offers the CHANCE of revealing fake or scammy sellers especially sellers that have lots of successful sales, but if a problem occurs, then that seller flakes out (eg "treats customer poorly"). Such sellers are hard to spot due to the bad results hidden by the many successful ones. In the end, this tool can still improve especially if it can create a form of "INSTITUTIONAL MEMORY" which is needed in online sales reviews.

Works great on Amazon, it's very useful! On Walmart however, using it takes me to a page telling me to "add Fakespot to Firefox" even though I already have it installed, making me unable to use it on Walmart at all as it never recognizes that it is in fact installed.

Collecting enormous amount of Data
