Wait, are fake review detector sites a real thing? What is an example of one?

The couple that I know of are https://reviewmeta.com and https://www.fakespot.com/analyzer

Looks like ReviewMeta's creator has left the project, but the site still seems to work. Fakespot really wants you to use their app or browser extension, but the link I pasted allows you to ad-hoc check item URLs.

FakeSpot has purposefully limited prior functionality from their site and only allows those features via installing their browser plugin.

They really want that browsing history. So perhaps use a private tab.
