This is so fucked
Their FB page is filled with obviously botted reviews
I really hope this is an elaborate bit, I watched one of their landleech "testimonial" vids and it didn't seem obviously generated by AI, he was boasting about increasing his monthly yield of blood by 80% using some of these
Edit, addendum:
Website is extremely sus imo
Filled with stock photos/photos ripped from other places and the videos they have of people "reviewing" their pods look like carefully edited-down reviews people have made of capsule hotels, this shit is definitely a scam
Although actually maybe they're just reselling/"dropshipping" capsule hotel pods to landlords tbh, I saw some similar photos on Alibaba product listings
Landleech dropshipping scheme lmao, what an incredible variety of parasites our society has produced
We even have have parasites that feed on other parasites
If it isn't real now, it will be soon.
I think you’re right. It’s either a drop shipping service or a scammer trying to profit from landlords by using renters and online users to spread the website in the hopes it attracts landlords.
The site was created recently, and every post about this only came into existence today. The catalysts seem to be supposed landlords asking innocuous questions on forums about whether they should implement more of these pods in their units and getting a ton of backlash.
This is either a bit or a grift using people like us as their pawns.
Yeah :(
It's definitely some kind of scam/grift. 2 of the new/recently resurrected accts on reddit posting about this were also posting about another shopify slop vendor selling paint kits or some shit like a month ago
Dead internet ~~theory~~
This is seriously making me reconsider how much "discussion" on reddit is entirely artificial
Most upvotes come from bots
Okay, okay, maybe I'm looking into this too deeply but
Also, the only people talking about this online are either people making fun of it or accts that are either new or were inactive for years suddenly posting about it
Example, this user who was inactive for 6 years and then suddenly is posting about these fucking pods and arguing with people:

Very sus
A lot of it might just be outrage bait for more engagement tbh, or maybe just trolls idk
A Reddit link was detected in your comment. Here are links to the same location on alternative frontends that protect your privacy.
It might also be an ARG/ad campaign for an upcoming TV show or game
It can be just someone trying to scam investors/VCs out of their money by "developing" a product that they know will never see the light of day, but that will pay the bills for a few years.
