142,000 people have signed a petition calling for TripAdvisor to 'stop covering up sexual assaults' after the company reportedly instructed a woman to write a review of the tour guide she said raped her

TripAdvisorOne woman started a petition that has been signed more than 142,000 times, calling for TripAdvisor to change its policies after she says she was raped by a tour guide she found through the service.

The petition was started last week by K., a woman who wishes to remain anonymous, after she told TripAdvisor that she had been raped by a tour guide with top reviews on the service. "Not only was this solution woefully inadequate to warn other tourists — my one star review would quickly get lost among minor complaints about the guide — but it required me to relive the painful details of my assault and out myself publicly in a place where my assailant could likely find me," K. writes in the petition.that — in addition to K.

Critics of this policy point out that reviews highlighting sexual assault or other safety issues can be buried by other reviews. One women who told The Guardian she had been raped in a hotel in the Caribbean took issue with TripAdvisor's solution, which would lump her response alongside one-star reviews complaining about dirty bed sheets.
