Cool product, but I'm actually concerned about privacy using a tool like FakeSpot. Their privacy policy is extremely broad and includes handing over purchase history and search history on shopping websites to the extension authors:

Yeah you don't want to install their extension as it stands. Which is why they try so hard to push it, instead of just putting the analyzer on the front page.

See if you can even find it: https://www.fakespot.com/

Meanhwhile there are 3 links to the chrome extension, and two to the app.
