OpenTable to Display First Names and Photos on Reviews

OpenTable's new policy will show diners' first names and profile photos on reviews starting May 22, applying retroactively to past comments.

OpenTable announces a policy change to increase transparency by displaying first names and profile photos on diner reviews.
The update, effective from May 22, will also apply to previously anonymous reviews, potentially affecting user privacy.
Diners express mixed reactions, with some concerned about the implications for negative reviews they have posted in the past.
Users can edit or remove their reviews and change their profile pictures before the policy takes effect to maintain some level of anonymity.
Despite the change, OpenTable has not introduced a setting that allows diners to opt out of displaying personal information.
