Out of 32 user ratings for this site 22 of them are poor. How is it that WOT gives in an excellent rating? How are we to trust anything WOT tells us when sites like this are excellent but a warning screen pops up stopping me in my tracks if I choose to enter a site not appropriate for children. I want to be told whether or not a site is going to harm my computer or scam/track me in some way, not whether or not WOT morally objects.

The "problem" with this site is that to the non- discriminating surfer it is not clear that it is a PR or infomercial site Therefore the content is written by or at least for the company that is marketing the product. The example that I read (Ruggy rug grippers) was full of illusions of independent analysis including "Are There Any Drawbacks to Using Ruggies Rug Grippers?" and "Consumers Must Use Caution When Purchasing Ruggies Rug Grippers" Of course both of these are turned to affirmations of the product. I hate the fact that we have allowed generations of Americans to grow up in a "consumer" society without being taught the sceptical skill set required to protect themselves. But until the day comes we must remind them to trust ***** skeptical when doing product research on the internet. An Advocate for the survival and WELLBEING of humanity ED SCOTT
