    I would like to point out that a one star is technically 0. A five star review on Google is a rating of zero to 4. As a 1 star is automatically a given, one can assess an accurate rating by subtracting 1 from all ratings and understanding it’s a four star system in disguise.

    Google says this restaurant is a 3.2 rating? That’s a 2.2 out of 4 possible stars. The ratio is corrected. Bringing what google says is a 64% down to the actually 55%. This is the manipulation that an automatic 1 star creates.
