    I’m with you, but sites like these were trying to solve a problem of fake anonymous reviews. And now not only they are fucking over everyone who did participate, but killing their own proclaimed goal.

      Yeah the fake reviews are a problem. One solution i thought of could be a sort of untrackable review authorization QR code on the bill. That way only people that were actual customers could give a review. You could still just spout bullshit ofc but its would be harder and couldnt be done with bots.
