No More Fake Reviews - So Who’s Gonna Tell Us What To Buy?


Very interesting and with a fairly profound impact on our audiophile community:

Some strong language in the ruling. How are some of our YouTubers going to be able to sustain their channels without gifted products?

FTC is brilliant… at rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.  Read Lina M. Khan‘s bio.  She is a classic study in Ivy League machinery-cog dynamics.  With her PhD (Probably hasn’t Done it), she will slay the dragon…of what?  Human behavior?  What actual laws broken will be applied to such cases?

These people have a crushing lack of understanding Homo sapiens.  She would last 5 minutes on the real mean streets of business.  The expended energies and capital on such endeavors reminds us of why an understanding of “Gulliver’s Travels” is far more valuable than that PhD… in the real working world.

Our tax dollars at work targeting fluff.  Cats chasing laser pointers.
