15. Jake Tapper's new book hit with review ban as Amazon sees spike in 'unusual' activity

"Amazon was forced to limit reviews of the new book by CNN host Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, the site showed on Tuesday.

The landing page for the book "Original Sin" contains zero reviews. When a user clicks to leave a review, they get a warning reading: "Amazon has noticed unusual reviewing activity on this product. Due to this activity, we have limited this product to verified purchase reviews."

None of his other books appear to have been affected, with the more recent reviews being posted in February.

based on Bezo's tendency to censor opinion he doesn't agree with, I wonder if he is involved with this also because maybe the reviews were against tapper, and wasn't to his liking.
