Christian: 'I want them to put the BigTech.Sucks rating badge on their site. It should be marketing for them.' A sticker anyone can copy is worthless, so it is not a sticker. - badge/<product>.svg is generated from the assessment row on every build. Score, grade and date are never typed by a human. - Served from bigtech.sucks. A copy pasted onto a vendor's own server is not a badge and its link will not resolve. The domain is the signature. - Regenerated every build, so improving earns a better badge without asking and regressing loses it without warning. - The SVG carries the record id, version and method in a comment, so a real badge can be traced back to one assessment. badges.html publishes the rules: free forever, only rated products, no badge as a favour, and misuse called out publicly. Free matters, because charging for it would make it worthless to both sides: marketing for the vendor, receipts for their customer. Also rewrote the write pass to emit report + badge per assessment in one loop, so they can never drift apart.
