    If I may comment - in my experience, electronic communication has a
    somewhat lower than normal level of objectivity attached to it. It's
    too easy for a poster to remain shielded by distance and anonymity,
    and there are certainly some really vindictive people out there who
    like nothing better than to malign the reputations of others.

    I suspect in the long run it's safer not to encourage public
    "warn-off's" of businesses, especially if they're not present on the
    list to defend themselves.
