Facebook employees have been caught leaving glowing reviews on Amazon for Facebook's new video-chat device.
Facebook released the Portal, a video-chat and smart-speaker device, in October. It's the first hardware product built and sold under the Facebook brand.
The new gadget has already faced some hardship, as Facebook acknowledged that it could collect data about its owners to help the company target ads at people.

I don’t trust any Amazon review with less than 100 reviews.
I don’t trust Facebook. Period.
That’s all an insane commie lib knows to do: lie, lie, lie......and, oh yeah, steal and spend other peoples’ money.
They probably do really like it. Or are they being paid to say it’s good? There’s a difference. Often times people are fans of their company products. Like Swordmaker loving apple. No difference.
This is the Facebook Is Evil ping list.

Most internet ad hits are from bots written by the site owners. Fake reviews have been a staple of the internet since the first review page was opened. Fscts of life. Everything you see on the net is faked.
Kinda like Pols getting phone banks to runnn the bank...in their favor?
I'm just glad that Amazon and Google are still trustworthy...
Alexa, Do You Work For the Government?
“Alexa, Do You Work For the Government?”
While I can’t speak for Ms. Alexa, for the first time in my life I did have the experience of having my driver license swiped when buying alcohol, and it’s not like I just graduated college last week here in Texas. I’ve heard of it happening in bars, but never seen it. Who knows where this data goes - maybe to my doctor?
So, Walgreen’s, the wine was good, and reasonably priced, but our relationship is now over...
Hate to say it but I look for reviews with less than perfect spelling and grammar as signs of authenticity.
The fake reviews are invariably full of exclamation points and gushing superlatives and usually short on details or any drawbacks.
I like the sarcastic reviews the best.:)
"Team, team, team!"
Also, nothing lately has reminded me more of 1984 than the two-way video of this Portal. Sure, we've had cameras on our computers and phones for years, but they are usually more deliberately used on a person to person basis. When you couple the two-way portal with FB's murky definitions of privacy, you're getting 1984-like hardware and software.
In my mind, you think the damn thing is shut off, and you do or say something a-politic, and it starts to chide you, or connects you to a Facebook Monitor. Bad, bad, bad.
Think about the potential for Pokeman-Go to gather the interior layout of buildings.
Think about those RATS lost and looking for Senator McConnells office and being recorded all over the building the other day. I dont think that was innocent.
What about the ZOOM app? It associates the face, phone number, IP address, voice and can record content. But it is free!!!
Facebook = Fakebook
What do you expect from liberal liars?
I beginning to think that the internet is full of scoundrels.
