Why? Knowing how the staff conducts itself is an important aspect of deciding if it’s a good place to eat.

Cant we just keep doing it or have they put safeguards in place or something?
Is this news? They do this all the time with review bombing.
One hand washes the other.
Who reads reviews for a McDonald’s? What could you possibly learn?
Edit: I just found out that the local Arby’s in this Indiana town of under 100,000 people has 940 reviews. And not because it’s especially terrific or horrible (comparatively, it’s still an Arby’s).
I think I know why Trump won.
They are independent franchises - I would absolutely check reviews on any chain I go to.
Which I do, but not McDonalds, because I can’t eat anything there. But my point is the same - I have a food allergy, and some chains do a better job of keeping clean and keeping things separated.
So yes, there are entirely reasonable people who do write and read reviews, even for something like a McDonalds.
Cowards.
I don’t think the review bombs were a great thing to do. It’s one step from doxxing the person, who might have been just getting by and the money was enough to convince them. A negative review of a place just because it’s where something happened unrelated to the place is just ranting and not legit. I wouldn’t have done it, but I’m not in that much need of such a safety net to make the next rent payment.
We can look at it as corporate protecting corporate, but in the end isn’t this just good moderation of posts that are not appropriate for the purpose? What if this hadn’t been McD’s but a family-owned restaurant?
I’d really like to know how they feel about turning him in now that they’re aware there’s little to no chance of them getting the reward money.
“1/5. mcsnitches. don’t eat here if you’re on the lam.”
would be a legit review of that particular restaurant.
I think these are very reasonable points and the hypothetical is poignant, but it’s important to remember that corporations aren’t reasonable people, they don’t behave like reasonable beings and they get a system of justice totally different than you or I.
So one doesn’t need to be reasonable in any aggression against them, just disruptive.
I can imagine the employee receiving threats from his employer and from police if they didn’t cooperate. We shouldn’t blame them.
How would the employer possibly know what is in one’s mind?
I don’t think it’s difficult to find out who saw the guy that night. They knew what date and time he came in and therefore who was working that shift.
Police probably asked for the camera footage and if McDonald’s employees didn’t comply, in sure they would’ve faced certain repercussions.
They knew what date and time he was there before someone called in a tip and said he was there???
How did they know he was ever there before knowing who he was? Doesn’t add up, chief.
Huh??? What the heck kind of logic is that???
No the cops had a description of the guy. They did an investigation after the murder. They probably went around all the nearby businesses that were opened at that time and requested video surveillance footage. They probably also questioned the employees with pictures of the guy and either they had to comply or didn’t know who they were talking about. Who knows.
Nearby the murder in NY so they went to Central PA.
Braindead.
