    It wasn’t though, I was specifically researching it and the Xupermask from Will.i.am and neither promised N95 capability, in fact, they both specifically stated they WEREN’T N95.

    Pages are down now, so there’s nothing to link to, but if it had been N95 I would have bought one. They weren’t.

      The complaint alleges that Razer only stopped the false advertising following negative press coverage and consumer outrage at the deceptive claims,

      Unless you saved a picture of the thing, they stopped advertising it almost immediately. I’ll take investigators words over your story though. No offense.

      The article brings that up.

      “The complaint alleges that Razer only stopped the false advertising following negative press coverage and consumer outrage at the deceptive claims,” said FTC.

      In fact, after a little bit of research of my own, I found an Engadget article with quote from a Razer representative stating, “To avoid any confusion, we are in the process of removing all references to ‘N95 Grade Filter’ from our marketing material.”

        yeah, it’s your fault you were confused, you stupid baboon. what part of ‘N95 Grade Filter’ made you confuse this mask for an N95 alternative?

          Yeah, it makes a nice deception, and is legally ok, or at least they thought so
