      I know what you mean, but let’s not misinform accidentally. Chevron Deference is the decision in which courts defer to the expertise of the federal agencies when statutes are vague or otherwise ambiguous. Loper Bright is the decision that overturns it and is a power grab by the supreme court.

        Maybe we can start with sellers that swap items and keep their reviews so they show up first in listings.

        There are multiple ways you could ago about proving it. You could look at the timing of reviews. (Do they suddenly get an influx and then it drops?) You could look at the IP address of reviews to find correlations. You could look at the content of reviews. (Do they share similar characteristics that don’t match legit reviews?)

        These, and other things, can be used to start the process. Then you enter into discovery and get their emails and account information. This is likely to get you absolute proof if there wasn’t enough already.

      Exactly. Making false advertisment claims for health products is banned.

      I know of fake health products with 10k + filed complaints and the FTC has done zilch. It needs far more funding to be effective online.
