What to do about Lulu

I'm very close to just wanting to make a female version myself. I could, too.

That's something, at least.

However, while it might be possible to stop Lulu, it won't be possible to stop the concept. Even if this specific website is taken down, there is obviously considerable demand for something like this.

As with pirated songs and movies, legal actions will simply force this sort of rating activity to use a distributed application of some kind, that could annotate facebook while not interacting directly with the server. So it's likely that this will remain a part of the digital future.

Therefore, it would be wise to consider strategies for dealing with such loss of privacy. Alternately, the same technology could be used to track women who make false rape accusations, fraudulent support claims, and so on.

Isn't this pretty close to the female rating site from the Facebook movie? Why is it ok if women do it?

As horrible as Lulu is, the main problem is how successful it has been. Rather than fight the company, we should be campaigning to get people to realize that this is wrong. Therefore, I will not be filing a complaint.

I think it's better to use it as an example, to provoke shame in women who would sign up to use it.

Is there anyway to find out if you are on lulu?

What's to stop any guy creating lots of fake female facebook pages and registering them?

I'm cool with it.

Grab a second phone, use a nickname as your lastname. John Smithers, 212-637-9264.

See how easy it is?

One way. Fight fire with fire.

Start up a mirror site where men rate women. Watch them hut it down. Learn their tactics in shutting it down. Flip those tactics back in their face and shut down Lulu.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

If every man who got put on Lulu left Facebook, then Facebook would refuse them access.

My thoughts are that the chance of successful litigation against the website is pretty remote. User Generated Content
