The fact is that any provider can post your business on here any time she wants to. Look at the Alerts. Look at what some post in other areas. What do the providers post in the providers only section?
If anyone gets your vehicle license plate number, home address, real name, real job info, or any other big piece of real world information, for few dollars they can find out all your RW info and if you can be black mailed. Then you have a problem.
So a review is more about not wanting providers to judge you or tell others how you conduct business or they might say something about performance and others see it before Mods delete it. Maybe some just don't want the status quo changed.
I'm fine with with whatever happens. I don't think ECCIE will change. The time and expense of setting up a web site, running it, advertising, getting members would be enormous. Will providers ever be able to post rebuttal on their review? I don't know the answer, but seems like it would be the right thing to do.
Thing learned:
With all that being said this is mostly an academic exercise. We will not have much or any input into what is done about this in the future.
Privacy is an illusion. If you are peranoid this may not be the hobby for you.
Some like WP some don't. Other than distance, time,scheduling or one word (LOL) more than one would still like to spend an hour with WP.
Does this hurt her business? Only she will know.
Who is here just to have fun and live a little closer to the edge than "normal" people?
That would be me. Maybe you. I don't know I don't live your life.
