I have some friends who have said it to me in person too. I wonder which of them are the shills?

This had been flagkilled. I vouched it because it is a serious point.

None of them obviously. But the standards of trust I have in my friends is higher than in strangers.

I'm not certain that there really are paid shills on this particular topic online (I actually somewhat doubt it because it would open the companies up to serious legal issues). But we should always be aware that the interests of strangers may not align with ours.
