Hi, Joel. I updated the title.
Maybe because I only recently moved to an area where Yelp has a presence, but I hadn't noticed this article until today.
I hadn't heard of this before, so thanks for posting.
Do you have any sources for updated info on this situation? I'm curious to see how it has played out.
