By the way, this GPS sounds a lot like the Ambassador/Customer Experience Management program. ^

I also find the blog linked to trying to link GPS an the t&c change laughable as he posted a comment of mine fom the other thread as if it the Lord's gospel. At least it sounds very similar.

His blog post:
Also this doesn’t only apply to social networking sites but for sites like FlyerTalk as well. If you interact with Starwood “Lurkers” or representatives on any public message boards, they will link your handle with your Starwood account. Don’t be surprised, if they contact you after you have commented about a hotel or a stay that was less than stellar.
