getting off the internet and talking to some actual apiarists
Hopefully it’s easy enough to find the sources they’re relying on. If you don’t know apiarists you might have to burn a lotta gas or spam email some to talk to them.
On a serious note, I hope those forums aren’t infested with commercial interests as you recognized think tanks often are. I mean, I pretty much doubt it.
But some smart, yet very sad, corn syrup etc. shill could be hawking his stuff and inflating via socketpuppets…
This right here is why a small part of me wants an independent third party to vacuum up our IRL identities (think social security number) and represent the legitimacy of our existences to social/review websites.

Heh. I have neither the bandwidth nor the expertise to unpack that this evening, but let’s just say: that would go so gloriously wrong in every conceivable way.
Today’s shower thought: the IRS already forced me to signup for ID dot me, why not put that intrusion to good use?
No more choosing the next venue for the biggest days of our lives (weddings) or anniversaries (restaurants) or honeymoons based on friggin REVIEW FRAUD (dammit Amazon!)!
Maybe an unqualified unpack next time you’re free & you think of how angry this idea makes you :p

Or, simply find the online forums they use. They’re not all Luddites, you know.
But what happened to getting off the internet!
