I think the problem here is this line of reasoning:wateroverfire posted:
Creating an institution that we all know would have massive potential for abuse does not strike me as the moral equivalent of giving someone a bad job reference. The scale of the activity is relevant to how we morally judge it. For instance, there's a big difference between stealing a pen from work and stealing thousands of dollars. The fact that most of us would probably shrug off the theft of a pen doesn't mean we're committed to also shrugging off the theft of something much larger. So if we're going to talk about the ethics of creating a website to blackball employees then that's fine but I'm not sure the starting point for that conversation should be: "How bad is it if I warn somebody that employee X drinks on the job?"
