Yeah yelp has always been a PoS company. "Oh hey small restaurant. How have you enjoyed the free advertising we have given you by having a page for your restaurant on our site. If you don't pay the X fee, then we'll hide your top reviews and give you a lower overall rating!"

Historically Yelp has manipulated what reviews are shown based on whether or not you've paid for Yelp advertising services. Most restaurants want nothing to do with Yelp because of their past business practices. This is only one more tool that will be used unscrupulously to hurt small business.
