Went to Google Play to complain about Hulu. I noticed Google advertising that over 300 reviews had the verbatim quote “watch and movies that you love”. It’s always confusing that buggy corporate apps have >95% 5 star reviews until you see that the majority are just completely fake, and no one cares or is doing anything about it.
As if there’s no astroturfing on Reddit :) there’s plenty of companies in the comments there, posts promoting particular brands or products that get to the front page, etc.
