- Se valoró con 2 de 5por dxxn, el hace 2 mesesi can't recommend this extension honestly. a lot of reputable brands/products I know are getting low ratings. It's hard to trust what it says.
- Se valoró con 2 de 5por Flinx, el hace 4 mesesso far I am not impressed. reports products with an A rating with only one rating but no review. reports 50% deception on an item I reviewed when there are only 6 reviews one of which is not a vine review. does not point out which reviews are "deceptive" reports products with lots of deceptive or badly written reviews with an A rating. list pros and cons by quoting partial sentences from reviews. asks for feedback on it;s webpage but does not allow you to write why you are clicking thumbs up or down. seems no better than flipping a coin.

When I analyze the reviews it shows me that a product with 50,000 reviews has only 50 reviews. So only 1 in 1000 reviews is recognized. Well-known manufacturers like Samsung or Apple is given a D rating - i doubt these companies have to fake reviews. In addition, when reading the reviews, the add-on does not show which ones seem to be trustworthy and which ones doesn't. In its current state it is mostly useless.
Funktioniert nicht.
Wenn ich die Bewertungen analysiere zeigt es mir an, dass ein Produkt mich 50.000 Bewertungen nur 50 Bewertungen habe. Also wird nur 1 von 1000 Bewertungen erkannt. Bei namhaften Herstellern wie Samsung oder Apple wird eine D-Wertung vergeben - als ob diese Firmen es nötig hätten Fake-Reviews einzustellen. Außerdem zeigt einem das Add-on beim Lesen der Bewertungen nicht an, welche vertrauenswürdig zu sein scheinen und welche nicht. In dem aktuellem Zustand ist es so eher nutzlos.

- Se valoró con 2 de 5por SagaciousB, el hace un añoI used to like Fakespot a lot. However, more recently it feels like the data is completely off. I can see a well-known reputable brand like Sony that I trust to not be buying fake reviews get a solid F. The reasoning doesn't even seem valid. Then some junky unknown brand/product gets an A rating with what are clearly bad reviews.
Furthermore, the A-F ratings don't actually help me decide if the product itself is good, so I don't actually get actionable information for making a purchase.
I don't know what they're using for training data or feedback for their ML models, but it doesn't appear to be working.Respuesta del desarrollador
publicado el hace un añoHi SagaciousB,
Thank you for your feedback.
Unfortunately, a majority of eCommerce is now run through third-party sellers who frequently manipulate listings for brands names like Sony.
When customers have a bad experience with a third-party seller it can impact that brands' reviews, even though the brand did nothing wrong. And this is just one issue of many that we help protect consumers from.
If you could, please email us any products you have questions about to contact@fakespot.com so we can take a second look at them and address any other concerns you may have.
Best,

Thanks for your feedback.
Our extension works by placing Fakespot Review Grades, Seller Ratings, and Highlights directly on the marketplaces we support.
If you do not like any feature, we give you complete control over your Fakespot experience in the extension settings.
This way you can only see the information you need to make a better purchase.
Best,
Fakespot - Se valoró con 2 de 5por Usuario de Firefox 12253094, el hace 2 añosReally just agreeing with the most recent 1-star reviews. I wish to ask the Dev: do you realize ... and I'm not suggesting that you're not brilliant, honestly. It's just - I hate to see a once-very-popular add-on going this route.
I wish you'd re-think your decisions which resulted in a far more invasive experience and which have garnered some harsh criticism from formerly happy users. I know that you are not "forcing" anyone to do anything, and that's been your basic response of late... and we know that's true. BUT - if a person wishes to use your add-on you ARE enforcing a level of depth and breadth in.. umm... information gathering abilities.. which a growing number of people are quite concerned about.
Clearly you've many projects underway and this is perhaps just a legacy from a more addOn-friendly Firefox - but, if you care about this particular one - I hope you give it more thought.
Cheers - and - I do get it, really. - Se valoró con 2 de 5por Usuario de Firefox 15289944, el hace 3 añosI installed the program before reading the reviews, then found out in the reviews that all my website visited are reported to Fakespot. That gave me a bad feeling, so I removed the program and will use their website link instead when needed.
- Se valoró con 2 de 5por RCAdddiction, el hace 3 añosIt's a positive that Fakespot finally works with Firefox as well as it did in Chrome. I've stopped using Chrome due to privacy issues. I use Chrome only to shop on Amazon to see the Fakespot review and then close it.
However, it's a huge negative that FS pops up and interferes with non-Amazon, non-eBay sites. The plug-in also seems to have far too many permissions, tracking every site to which a user goes. This is a bridge too far. I'm disabling it for the moment, but likely am going to uninstall this overly intrusive tracker. Again, if there's no charge for a product, then you are the product. I'm not going to be FakeSpot's product.
