Glad they’re finally doing something and hope this is enough. In talking to one business owner in SF, she told me she was called every day by Yelp asking her to advertise (!) By the way she described it Yelp sounded like the tech mafia.
I’m sure it’s a challenge to identify what reviews are fake. That said, they’ve now attracted so much ill-will in the business community with this + the aggressive sales tactics, it’s going to be a challenge to get it back. I hope they do.
