I want to start telling all these companies to leave me the f*** alone. I bought their product and I didn’t complain I didn’t return it. Isn’t that good enough for them??

    if the bought thing works as expected most people don’t leave a review, while people with problems are much more likely to leave a bad review

    That’s a good point, though maybe a better way for retailers to deal with that would be to use the percentage of sold items that are associated by a review as an input into a ranking. I mean, maybe “no reviews, lots of items sold” should be used to indicate that an item is favorable rather than neutral.
