Which is weird. Because some reviews have a tag/label specifying "received product for free". So there must be some way to indicate it.

I believe those are ones where it's a product sold by Amazon first-party and Amazon themselves sent it free, maybe as part of the Amazon Vine program.

So Amazon goes by the maxim of "rules for thee, but not for me". I can't say that I'm surprised :)

That's LITERALLY what their entire business is...

I always disclose in my reviews if the seller tried to bribe me and that I refused. I have yet to have one taken down for that, and I figure that's something people might want to know.

The only time I was bribed, I left a note on my review about it, and it's the only product review I've left anywhere that's ever been rejected.

Yup that's like exactly what I did and what happened to me, except it was a nose hair trimmer
