Because people rely on reviews and ratings to buy stuff? And stricter guidelines will mean lot of real reviews will be deleted along with fake ones? In which case some of the genuine items will be deprioritized because they have less reviews/rating?
> Because people rely on reviews and ratings to buy stuff?
There are people who try to make a living on YouTube. Demonetization hurt them and they have a ready-made audience to vent to.
But legitimate reviewers won't really care if Amazon implements stricter checks, because their livelihood doesn't rely on Amazon reviews. People won't have much sympathy for the people pushing crappy products using sketchy reviews who might get hurt, and they don't really have a high-profile forum to complain.
If Amazon wants to implement a stricter review check you can rest assured that it will not be like YouTube demonitization all over again.
