This is based on a flame war. "

A seriously misguided individual who was banned from this website for using multiple accounts. His technical arguments about manipulating reputations are invalid as explained in the FAQ: http://www.mywot.com/wiki/FAQ

Perhaps the most obvious indication that manipulating reputations is not easy that he decided to start an anonymous blog (and disable comments so nobody can respond to his claims) instead of manipulating his website's reputation to whatever he wants... (Yes, we know which sites he means, but I'm not going to disclose them here.) "

This is obviously based on ignorance. "

You can debate on the WOT Forum your grievance,but not on your blog it seems.Threads on the Forum never get deleted unless they are Spamvertising which is bad business techniques.

Or illegal type comments.But on the whole, most threads are on the Forum are readable by anyone.

WOT is not perfect,but what is.As a site advisor its one of the Best IMHO. "

The author makes quite a rant, but it's a fair point: why has the site been marked down for "Vendor reliability" and privacy? I don't see any issues there.
There may be a problem with trustworthiness, but I can't see anything that would make it particularly unsafe for children either. "

I agree with most comments on here or other places that this site is highly controversial but your all ratings will ALSO be misleading to others very much. Besides "Trustworthiness", the rest items for rating is nothing to do with its contents, but you all downvote for the reason of ** angry **, right? It's absolutely unfair. "

Safe to surf, but the website makes misguided criticisms towards WOT based on assumptions that simply aren't true. "

I hate this guy "

Whot about it? "

Hmm... Could be legit, could be no? "
