>some businesses don't even have websites anymore.
I think that opens a differnet discussion altogether. Yelp can be considered a "social media". It's a website where users provide content (in this case, reviews) with some various algorithms made to encourage businesses to play ball to get high visibility. but I doubt any of the proposals discussed here would affect Yelp. Kids sure as heck aren't concerned with ratings over businesses they often can't pay for.
So would it be bad if a company lacked a website and relied on Yelp, whose goal isn't the same as Instagram's?
