Unsurprising. They've been putting their finger on the scale since Captain Marvel, if not earlier. The reliance of sites like these on access and advertisement is sufficient for corruption of their algorithms to be inevitable. The unwashed masses voting 'zero' do not pay IMDB's bills and their input will be discarded to appease the Media conglomerates who's content the site relies on.
EDIT: I should add that I was thinking of Rotten Tomatoes, not IMDB. I had reason to be suspicious of IMDB's ratings, but never evidence.
IMDB has been pulling this shit for a loooong time. Now they get financed to do it but in the past they just pulled scores they didn't agree with often.

Only potentially honest site is metacritic |(user score) and they just pulled some bullshit excuse to lie recently. We all know the truth though.
