    Even more problematic are entire communities made out of astroturfing bots. This kind of stuff is increasingly easy and cheap to set up and will fool most people looking for advise online.

      I am convinced that the bidet shills on reddit are bots. There’s just no way that hundreds of thousands of people are suddenly interested in shitting appliances.
