tl;dr it got worse!

A possible connection between fake profile invitations from developers "from Ukraine" and Russia.

I've been getting these suspicious posts from people claiming to be from Ukraine. They always use the same template. Seems suspicious; any idea what's going on?

Extreme deception in advertising, if you ask me, from a major insurer.

It was good, then got plagued by bad incentives, to sum it up

As a non-expert, I need a name brand as my gold standard for comparison in normal usage scenario.

Why do you need to compare the product to another? Why can't you put an extension cord behind a piece of sheetrock and evaluate if there is a false negative? Why can't you try it next to a known electric outlet or light switch?

The Which magazine sounds like Consumer Reports, who purports to have no interest outside of the consumer's: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consumer_Reports#Editorial_ind... I wonder if the HN community has had positive / negative experiences with CR relating to this topic

I purchased a subscription to CR. I trust their reviews, but they’re very limited. I want a new lawn mower, but their top rated mower isn’t available any more.

I too share your logic behind placing more trust in sites that go in-depth and review across all the brands, as opposed to focusing extra attention in only one or a couple.

Regarding SEO blogs, I have seen a lot of "review rewrite" jobs posted on a freelancing site, indicating there is a market for this kind of devaluing behavior (worse than not adding value, this actually is a net-negative on society, where costs are externalized)
