For anyone like this to be a good thing there needs to be a system of checks and balances. There should be an appeal process that is low effort and low or zero cost. There should also be a verification process by a third party before anything can be added.
Yeah, and a lot of this will depend on how it's used. If I were still in the service industry and I saw that a guy had been to 20 bars in the last year, and I saw he got flagged at one for violence, I would think, "Well, this doesn't seem to be a pattern of behavior, maybe he wasn't the instigator, I'll keep an eye on him but I'm not too worried." But I could see a lot of larger places, like clubs, who aren't hurting for business, just rejecting people who are flagged out of hand. The information seems objectively good to have, but the application could be really problematic.
