Seems like… a pretty bad policy, right? I wouldn’t mind doing a mandatory review, but I certainly wouldn’t want to be on the receiving end of some grumpy person who didn’t want to do one.
Except that since last year, it kind of is. It is now mandatory for some large conferences (such as CVPR) for authors to do reviews if they submit a paper. Failure to review, or reviews that are neglectful, can lead to a desk reject of their submission.
