Isn’t there a Black Mirror about this??
Yeah I think it’s called meow meow beans
Thats Community! That show and Black Mirror both did an episode about this.
Yeah in Season 3 Episode 1 everyone can rate everyone else and it has some really unsettling consequences on people’s behavior.
It exists in China as the social credit system.
Also the subject of Cory Doctorow’s “Down and out in the Magic Kingdom” from 2003.

This would be extremely chaotic and probably ruin social relations, but would be really funny until workplaces collapsed.
Maybe it would help some of the less self aware people realize how annoying they’re being?
Nah, it would just hurt their feelings and make them defensive. The only way for them to improve is to have a private heart to heart discussion about the ways they’re being irritating, and if they genuinely listen and want to improve. If they’re obstinate and think they’re doing nothing wrong, unfortunately there’s no practical way to change their mind.
Yeah. Then it’d be hilarious
1 day after it’s put in place, “Effective immediately, senior leadership will no longer participate in our Yelp for Co-Workers Pilot.”
4/5 for donuts alone.
5/7 with rice
This would be very bad. Imagine if every employer could just go online and publicly badmouth every employee that ever quits or gets fired. It would be very heavily abused.
Employers would ban it immediately anyway because it could also be a tool for employees to evaluate each other’s performance and be used for pay negotiations.
Isn’t this basically what YikYak (or whatever it was called) was?
