I'll note they seem to have pivoted a lot since then, which isn't a surprise. When I first read about it at the time, it sounded like an easy way to get yourself in all kinds of trouble with various issues. Defamation suits in particular. In Australia, the website is liable for what its users post, unlike in the US.
Legal issues aside though, the potential for harm seems overwhelming when there is an individual focus, as opposed to a corporate or institutional one.
