There's 2 kinds of people in this space, those who read blogs and live in fear, and those who are actually doing things, who tend to communicate in smaller groups in private. I can tell you there's still plenty of information being shared publicly, mostly not here. Although the shutdown threads here are good.
But just as with the practice of medicine advancing with the shift from exception and anecdotal based to evidence based and considering that today many (? most) people see the downsides of AORs (including possible shutdowns, permanent “pop-up jail”, repetitive declines, lower credit scores due to multiple inquiries) to outweigh the upsides, it’s prudent to very carefully evaluate the AOR course of action.
please present the evidence of said downsides. Who are these many "people"?
