I'm writing this on behalf of my significant other.Google refuses to enforce their privacy policies, specifically doxxing. The details: a reseller on another platform selectively took screenshots of pieces of a conversation from the private messaging portion of the website and posted them online in a review on the Google business profile in a misleading way (known as "cherry picking") in an attempt to make the seller look bad. This is known officially as "trial by incomplete evidence", a logical fallacy. Sadly, the other platform also did not enforce their policies regarding this abuse. More importantly, the profile from the selling platform that was targeted is a personal, non-entity account and the Google account is an LLC small business with a physical storefront. This further complicates the issue in the fact that the reseller from the selling platform is actually a competitor (a conflict of interest) and to further elaborate, the reseller contacted the owner of the business, (using the contact information from the Google business profile) offering to take down their Google review in exchange to accept their initial offer on the private selling platform that started the whole conversation. Additionally, Google my business reviews are supposed to be genuine experiences with the business (according to their policies) and the experience from the personal selling platform being merely an online transacting platform between individuals makes the whole situation even more outrageous. Perhaps when society advances a little further in the areas of truth, integrity and etiquette, these companies will reform and begin holding themselves accountable. Currently, either platform is requesting, or as I put it, "standing their ground" until a court order is produced. The point of having written policies is self governance.Google, thanks for making yet another person feel so small.
