  1. QuoVadis, you are not alone. Your scenario is painful and shared by many. There are many sites similar to the one you describe (I am not necessarily adopting your opinions or statements as my own because you made statements of fact about yelp that I can not speak to, and would be libel if the yelp administrators could demonstrate to be false). I am grieved by the fact that Section 230C or the Communications Decency act effectively grants federal immunity to the likes of yelps and ripoffreport as conduits of other peoples libel. Ironically their immunity comes under the heading of "Protection for “Good Samaritan” blocking and screening of offensive material". I have written extensively on this. A brief description is here: www.rexxfield.com/abuseofintenetfreespeech.php IMHO review sites that manipulate results for whatever reason should not be immune. This includes Google if their hypothetical "diversity algorithm" truly exists (I call it their "keep me humble algorithm") There was an interesting case in France which is in diametric opposition to the US CDA where Google was recently found liable for suggesting libelous search suggestions, wherein the word "scam" was suggested as the first suggestion when entering a business name in the search field.
