I'm talking about people going online with a concern about somebody else's issue. The issue is between the customer and the shop. Maybe the customer wants it that way and maybe the customer doesn't want the world to know about it?
Conversely, a guy getting work done to his engine may be getting some really trick (and legal) procedure done and the customer takes this trick to the internet "trying to be helpful to the community" or maybe "I just want to make sure this is legal so I'll post it for 20,000,000 viewers". I see it all the time. Problem is, the engine building (by real masters) industry is dyeing and now some keyboarder just wiped out 40 years of R&D in about 40 seconds. That's why there are some engine builders that make the customer sign agreements that none of the contents will be shared with others. May be difficult to enforce in court but it does set the tone.
Sorry, I'll get off that soap box now...
