I read some of the comments on that video, many look similar in style talking about a 'scam', or have a negative tone. Is it possible those are planted from a competitor, or do video ads often have feedback like that?

This examples looks like it covers a large number of cases:

      extractValues('John Doe <[email protected]> (http://example.com)', '{name} <{email}> ({url})')
    >> {'name': 'John Doe', 'email': '[email protected]', 'url': 'http://example.com' }

  The Government believes companies have been “profiting
  unfairly at the expense of [the] consumer” by overloading
