It’s been there for a while and the article is also a bit older, but I only recently saw this.

    I had a company reach out and offer to pay me $50 to remove the negative review I left of their chair. Amazon did nothing.

    But it shows just how dirty the system is. Some AI bot summarizing reviews is so not what’s needed.

      More surprised you managed to post a negative review. Every time I do it fails amazons community guidelines check or get removed a few days after.

        Yes as do most of mine. I tried updating that review and it was flagged and rejected 🙃

        But I tired to keep it objective as possible with pictures to document on the first pass.
