Fakespot is programmed to give good results to businesses that pay for good results, and bad results for everyone else. I tested it against known products and known reviews, and Fakespot turned out to be the fake.
and there is no way to completely remove it once firefox adds it. the price tag symbol is always present in the address bar when you visit the websites that fakespot is programmed to influence on, so that even when you turn it off, there is a chance that you would accidentally click to turn it on so that fakespot can make you buy something else.
Being ever-present, and constantly sending your activities and information to whoever is in charge of fakespot means that fakespot is monitoring your activities. Read the fine print.
