A lot of what counts as spam these days isn't something like "I search for bicycle reviews and get penis enlargement pills", it's more like "I search for bicycle reviews and get some blog who searched Amazon for the 5 most popular bikes and posted links to them with a little blurb and called it a 'Review'".

These sort of things are easy to spot, but only if you actually have a basic amount of familiarly with the topic. It's hard to spot with "AI" or super-cheap labor.
