WE CAN KICK YELP OFF THE APPLE STORE AND GOOGLE PLAY STORE!

This is targeted harassment and goes against BOTH Apple and Google Play Store policies. It is very easy to report the app to both Google and Apple. While we agree racism is evil and despised; this feature will soon be leveraged against any business as a false flag by a disgruntled customer or employee.

This is equally wrong.

Here’s how we stop it, en masse.

APPLE APP POLICY 1.1 Objectionable Content Apps should not include content that is offensive, insensitive, upsetting, intended to disgust, in exceptionally poor taste, or just plain creepy. Examples of such content include: 1.1.1 Defamatory, discriminatory, or mean-spirited content, including references or commentary about religion, race, sexual orientation, gender, national/ethnic origin, or other targeted groups, particularly if the app is likely to humiliate, intimidate, or harm a targeted individual or group. Professional political satirists and humorists are generally exempt from this requirement.
