WTF. What they were thinking? https://blog.yelp.com/2020/10/new-consumer-alert-on-yelp-takes-firm-stance-against-racism
sounds like a dying company desperately trying to be relevant again.
Imagine some google employees pet project making your entire company irrelevant
Didn’t Uber mark customers racist?
Mmm. No.
Yelp reviewers are already drunk off power. This is going to backfire
LoL I love to see a Business Insider article about the most racist business in every state.
Imagine the increase in traffic lol
Yet another extortion tactic from Yelp. Who knows. They will threaten the SMBs they are going to raise the racist flag on their Yelp page if they dont buy Yelp's services. SMBs have nothing to gain by being on Yelp. It is Yelp that needs SMBs to be on their site.
Lol. No. You just got manipulated by media and fake news about this announcement.
Sure, fake news from actual Yelp hosta... sorry customers.
Yelp has always had these alerts for businesses. It only fires when there is clear evidence. The media and people who didn’t click the article are really having a field day 😂
Who determine clarity of evidence and what specifically is racist? Is there a way to appeal such verdict? What's the process?
can you guys flag business for cultural appropriation too please? if they are serving Italian food I want to make sure they are from Italy and stuff
This is unbelievable. Though I wouldn’t want to see employees affected. I hope this company goes under and is used as lesson learned to others.
Imagine being an employee and being told to work on this. Reporting status and hearing "great job" from the bosses saying "looking forward for this feature going live"
Jesus Christ.
Thousands of defamation lawsuits is just the price we have to pay for progress 😂
