Reception

Reaction to the program has been relatively positive. It is praised for its compelling, human-centered narratives but criticized for focusing on particular issues rather than providing explanation for wider industry problems, or giving the viewer answers as to which brands and products are unaffected by the issues the program presents.[3]
