I support privacy too and maybe these services are on to something but being realistic, if we treat it as a free for all, we invite the scrutiny. The community needs to keep itself in check.

I say this coming from the fitness industry which is primarily self regulated. There have been many attempts to regulate it in the US but they've failed because we've been able to show that at its core, although there is plenty of bullshit, we have a system where very respectable and science based organizations work with the certifying bodies to keep standards of teaching and information.

We do that because if we got regulated we know we'd be thrown under a medical body that knows nothing about what we do. Our ability to continue to research and teach new content at the pace we do would be destroyed.

I know you're not supporting a free for all but I think we as a community need to figure out our weaknesses and do something about them so someone with a lot less knowledge doesn't decide to do it for us.
