Hmmmm, out of context, no? We were talking about giving stars to products and services here. Amazon has this somewhat solved with the "verified purchase" badge and "zero fake reviews tolerance".

As far as freedom of speech is concerned, in my personal opinion, the transparency has to go both ways, meaning, the government has to guarantee the freedom of speech, and that given social network has to have a given purpose and sane limits, but also, to be protected from the intruders and prying eyes. A tough nut to crack where we, as a society, are in infantile stages right now.
