Will Phoebe Gates go to prison with them? Can we be surprised she has turned out to be a fraudster at the tender age of 23 years old given the record of her father and some of her circle who seem to think that ripping people off is sign of genius.....
Watever, her reputation is now in tatters and her shopping assistant start up faces an uphill battle to stay afloat after allegations it stole sales commissions while her father s is also ruined
From media
Phia, an AI shopping assistant co-founded by Bill Gates' daughter Phoebe Gates, has been suspended from major affiliate platform impact.com following allegations that it improperly claimed affiliate commissions through a technique known as cookie stuffing. A Bloomberg investigation confirmed that the browser extension opened background tabs and overwrote legitimate referral codes from other publishers to claim commissions on purchases users made without going through Phia. In response to the findings, impact.com suspended Phia's account, citing behavior that violated platform policies. Phia stated it has already fixed the problematic code, which was added to its source code in December 2025... funding at a $185 million valuation from investors including Khosla Ventures and Kleiner Perkins, Phia now faces an urgent need to restore trust amid scrutiny from retailers and affiliate partners.
