This totally won't be abused to an absolute oblivion... right? Right? 

Because the article is too long to copy/paste, basically there will be an app released soon that'll allow you to rate anyone you want. You may not even know if you've been rated, people can just rate you this app will be great for stalkers, bad for people who are self-conscious, and perfect for cyber-bullying

How do you feel about this? Personally I think it's an awful idea x.x XD

From article:

You can already rate restaurants, hotels, movies, college classes, government agencies and bowel movements online.

So the most surprising thing about Peeple — basically Yelp, but for humans — may be the fact that no one has yet had the gall to launch something like it.

When the app does launch, probably in late November, you will be able to assign reviews and one- to five-star ratings to everyone you know: your exes, your co-workers, the old guy who lives next door. You can’t opt out — once someone puts your name in the Peeple system, it’s there unless you violate the site’s terms of service. And you can’t delete bad or biased reviews — that would defeat the whole purpose.

Imagine every interaction you’ve ever had suddenly open to the scrutiny of the Internet public.

“People do so much research when they buy a car or make those kinds of decisions,” said Julia Cordray, one of the app’s founders. “Why not do the same kind of research on other aspects of your life?”
