> "Last month, we were feeling like a little validation for our efforts. But mostly we wanted to replace the fake testimonial on our About Us page with a real one (which we haven’t done yet). So, we asked our users to write our editorial team a love letter"

Wait, what? In what world is fabricating testimonials okay?



Here, take a look at the "testimonial" in question[0]:

"When I first saw Earbits, I couldn't believe my eyes. Worlds collided, rivers flowed upstream, birds sang in languages that could only be described as the purest form of unconditional love. Since that day, no other radio will do. I have lost my wife and children, but I don't care. All I care about is Earbits."
