Problem: It is too hard to report problems #1

Open weex opened 3 years ago

weex commented 3 years ago

It is too hard to report issues to businesses, governments and other organizations. Hidden or non-existent contact methods, long wait or hold times, difficult website or app navigation make it difficult to provide constructive feedback.

Problem reporting is an essential facility in maintaining and improving the state of affairs. The harder it is to provide feedback, the less likely it is for an issue to be acted upon and ultimately resolved. The value of improved problem reporting scales with the size of the business, government, or organization.

Here are a few reasons why it can be too hard to report problems:

  1. Fear of retaliation: In some cases, individuals may be afraid to report problems due to fear of retaliation from individuals or organizations that are responsible for the problem. This can include fear of losing a job, being harassed or bullied, or facing other negative consequences.
  2. Lack of trust in authorities: Individuals may also be hesitant to report problems if they do not trust the authorities or institutions that are responsible for addressing the problem. This can be particularly true in cases where there is a history of corruption or abuse of power by those in authority.
  3. Social stigma: Some individuals may be hesitant to report problems due to social stigma or fear of being ostracized by their community. This can be true in cases of domestic violence, sexual harassment, or other forms of abuse.
  4. Complexity of reporting process: Reporting problems can also be difficult if the reporting process is complex, bureaucratic, or difficult to navigate. This can be true in cases where there are multiple agencies or institutions involved in addressing the problem, or when there are language or accessibility barriers that make it difficult for individuals to report the problem.
