I saw a frum (religious) WEB site that asked for book reviews, except they
prefer no negative reviews due to the potential danger of transgressing the
prohibition against lashon hara (unrequired derogatory remarks). What
about the prohibition against 'gneivat daat' (misleading people) -
unknowing consumers buying inappropriate material, or just a plain lousy
book, wasting money?
