I agree with Micheal this looks to be more like a way to kill someones chances of getting a job or advancement while staying hidden. My bet is there will be a lot of lawsuits with people starting to create Facebook pages for someone else and then linking them to this site. Lets face it users do not like losing control of "their" workstation or being told to do their job and this is the perfect way to get revenge on the IT staff or some manager.
