The first comment for a new 2-factor authentication product on Amazon's website was posted immediately after the product was announced.

The comment giver's name happens to be the same as the Chief Business Officer at Yubico:

Not only does he not identify himself as an executive for the company, he misleads by saying "Received my U2F device today". Of course he received it, his company makes it.
