Users will be able to add virtually anyone to the service, and people are unable to opt out of having reviews posted about them, adding to concerns over the invasive nature of the app.
When the app launches in November, users will be able to review friends, coworkers, dates and pretty much anyone else, using a one- to five-star rating scale.
The app, founded by Julia Cordray and Nicole McCullough, will be available only on iOS devices in November. It's already had thousands sign up to be beta testers, according to a post on the Peeple Facebook page. The company’s shares currently put its value at $7.6 million, according to the Washington Post.
In order to post a review, users have to be 21 or older with an active Facebook account. Reviews must be made under a person's own name, and a user must indicate how they know the person they will review in one of three categories: Personal, professional or romantic.

This is going to cause a lot of problems. Relationships, personal and professional, will suffer from this. What happened to talking with a person directly to understand someone better? Anyone shouldn't be able to simply view such info about a person.

I was thinking of a more grim level of people lashing out with private knowledge about someone without the victim being able to quickly and effectively report a statement to have it removed.

What now, spying on each other. That's how the Nazi's kept control as long as they did. People wondering what is to be said about any subject.
I say do away with the program or what ever they call it

It will be another method to stir up confusion especially for a angry ex, or someone filled with jealousy.

I hope you're right. However, if it's in use for longer than a week, and/or if mainstream media pushes it, it will still have a more than enough time to wreck havoc.

Although it's impossible to please more than a few people, I am a master at pissing off most. This app will only serve to demonstrate how good I really am...

"I'm sorry, SFC Davis, but we only hire people who have 4 star ratings on Peeple or higher. Thanks for applying, and no, we don't care about who rated you. It's the stars that count. Bye!" Welcome to a new day!
