Comment on LegalEagle Suing PayPal's Honey

As I said I don’t trust Trust Pilot, but this really doesn’t help their cause.

Sure, and I’d expect a lot of those to be from users who don’t use Honey, but are outraged by the news.
If they were going to leave a legitimate negative review, they would have done so before the news broke.

I don’t think they would know about the issue until the news broke. The average user would assume it is doing what it said, and the content creators were non the wiser either.

Sure, but I hope you can see the potential for knee-jerk reactions polluting otherwise relevant reviews, no?

Oh I can absolutely see that. I guess my issue is that the whole review ecosystem is flawed I guess.
As you (or someone else) said it’s a no win for TrustPilot. Either they stop review bombs or they allow them and people will be mad either way.
