==Controversy==

Surprisingly, after many months of operation, the site has proved more controversial within the MAP community than outside of it. It has been argued that:

*Bespoke goods can be ordered more affordably from independent retailers.
*Customer details might be leaked accidentally or harvested by third parties (the owner introduced analogue ordering in response to these concerns). Crypto payments are only available with surcharge.
*The site owner is seeking to profit from the venture.

The site owner has responded to these criticisms by pointing out that the chances of her ever turning a profit from this kind of venture are marginal, and that the project has novelty value as an openly MAP-owned venture and exercise of free-speech rights. She pledged any revenues exceeding her costs to her ongoing activism, and otherwise helping other MAPs and their organizations.

As of July, 2023, MMS has been mentioned on more than one Twitter thread, in what have generally been received as unsuccessful and unsophisticated attempts to scandalize the venture. We include some examples above.
