How do I know that you're not a shill for fakespot?

How does the person reading this comment know I'm not a fakespot competitor?

It's a tricky business, isn't it?

Good point. But, for pedantry's sake, your analogy is backwards. The person you're replying to is questioning the accuracy of Fakespot, which would make them a competitor. A shill would be endorsing the service, or placing doubt on the critical comment, as you have done.

You're totally right. I have no idea how I got that backwards!
