Ruhmkorf, A. (2014) Ratemylegalrisk.com – The Legality of Online Rating Sites Relating to Individuals in Data Protection Law. Intellectual Property Forum (96). 55 - 67. ISSN 0815-2098
Abstract
Online rating sites have become increasingly popular in recent years. What started off as the review of the quality of goods purchased on eBay or services provided by hotels has moved on to the rating of individuals. Professionals such as GPs, solicitors or teachers are now commonly rated online, often without being aware of this.
