It sounds more like your continuous deployment resulted in deploying a change without considering the ramifications of it. Can you really consider that a 'win'

  The issue here was stemmed from the fact that seller feedback for buyers made it so the items you buy became linked to your profile through your feedback page. In other words, even if you left no public feedback, a seller could still do something that associated that item with your account on your public profile. This, combined with the fact that folks now optionally have their real names linked to their Etsy account, made it so that a persons real name (if they chose to make it available) could be linked to a particular item through the seller feedback mechanism through no action of their own. This combined with the fact that buyer feedback is less relevant to Etsy now than it was years ago made us decide it was time to remove the buyer feedback from public view. The seller feedback mechanism we changed last night was something that had been in place since the beginning of Etsy. So, this particular issue we addressed was not a bugfix or a reversion of a previous change.
