I'm all for combating plagiarism but this whole secret police thing seems a bit Orwellian. How will they be held accountable and how will we know if they're doing a fair/good job, especially if we don't know who they are? I don't think @photofriend's intentions are bad but I've come across numerous instances where similar projects have erred or even been deliberately misused and abused to cause considerable harm (and usually with little recourse to remedy the situation).
Hi @coloneljethro!
The intentions are surely good. We want to make sure that photofriend is upvoting only original content. And this is the reason behind the creation of the Photo Police.
Everything will be double checked and final decisions will be still made by @photofriend. The secrecy is simply to protect involved individuals from possible downvotes.
Let's wait for next week's report, hopefully it will clear the air... :)
Thank you for your comment.
Alrighty, I'll keep an eye out for it.
