Sign in to access user reviews

Good evening,

today I noticed I can't read user reviews anymore on imdb.com :(. I don't have an imdb.com account. I also don't have an amazon.com account.

Is this a bug? Or is it a new change on imdb.com? I hope it's a bug.

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Andreas

Hi andreasmueller -

We're updating how you access user reviews on IMDb which will require you to sign in to view, write, edit, or report reviews. This will roll out to all users over the next few weeks.

This extra step is part of our ongoing effort to keep IMDb's reviews a space for genuine, human voices.

I hope this helps clarify!

@Col_Needham People are complaining on the Reddit IMDb forum also about having to logg inn to IMDb to see user reviews on titles, is this also a bug?

That does not answer my question as to why you do this "undercover", and don't announce it like you usually do with other changes.

2. Also

"This extra step is part of our ongoing effort to keep IMDb's reviews a space for genuine, human voices."

Does not explain why people have to log inn to READ, is it a big problem with computers reading reviews?

3.

As mentioned in my comment that was deleted on the original post, IMDb users on the IMDb forum on Reddit are RAGING at the moment.

Why don't you keep reviews open for people who just want to read? I live in Ukraine, and my mobile carriers don't receive SMS from Amazon. Now I can't use IMDb for anything at all. Thanks a lot.
