What's the reason behind creating a site in which people can find out how much other people have donated? Is there a purpose explicitly stated on FundRace? I fear that employers may use this information against potential employees and this may become a tool for discrimination. I can forsee many negative outcomes and few positive outcomes. I guess this site may be helpful if a dispute arises regarding the amount of funds a person donated but other than that, what good will come out of this site?
