Important attribution rule

A brand name does not prove parent-company ownership, PAC affiliation, or political spending. Individual product records show their own sources. Political Money applies a separate strong-match rule before counting any federal filing.

Simple interface, but ads are part of the deal

Roku lets you hide some home-screen ads, but its own support page says the hidden ad is replaced by another ad and even limits how many ads you can hide per day.

What this page does not do.

It does not average unrelated verdicts into a brand score. A good printer policy does not cancel out a bad subscription policy, and vice versa. LessBother keeps the underlying claims separate so you can inspect the evidence that matters to your decision.
