You want to see how scummy AND scammy Yelp is? Look no further than further up the thread with HN:keymone responding to me, dismissing how Yelp is an extortionist.

Oh yeah, keymone WORKS AT yelp. Probably as paid developer and proxied user to post bad posts for businesses that don't pay up. Extortion costs a bit, but pulls in dividends, I guess.

Post below is my response, and proof of said user. And just... damn.

You've been consistently a bad actor here, regarding Yelp. So, I searched google with "keymone yelp" (keymone is the HN username), and found the following:

https://github.com/keymone

[Name Removed] Yelp Hamburg, Germany http://www.yelp.com

Organizations @Yelp

Hmm...... Uusally people with direct interests (like yourself), will properly disclaim (I WORK FOR X, BUT NOT THEIR OPINIONS).

Same pic as the Github profile. Certainly not a coincidence.

Again, this says "happy developer" at Yelp.com

Yeah, I'd suggest if you were to play the devil's advocate, I would properly disclaim that "[You] work at Yelp as a developer" instead of me playing guessing games and finally google your name and see dozens of profiles with the same Skiing pic.

Frankly, you prove more of what I'm saying. So, tell me. How many proxies do you use when you seed bad reviews for companies that don't pay up? Because already, what you're doing is SHADY SHIT.
