The Yelp for People?

There's a lot of buzz about a new app that lets you rate people.

Maybe this isn't what we signed up for, people wonder.

I think it might be just the thing to cure the net of its habit of punishing people for being different. If it happens to you, if you learn what it feels like to be singled out and held to account for other people's values, people who say they have the right to hound you, maybe they do, but it's a choice, they don't have to punish you for not meeting their expectations. Maybe if they understand that it can happen to them, because it has happened to them, they won't be so quick to judge others.

So bring it on. Let's find out what people think of you.
