The first lesson you'd learn is that these companies would rather shoot the messenger, which would be you in this case.

It exists, it's posting anonymous timestamped proof on 4chan's /g/ then saying whatever you want to get off your chest.

I'd be waiting for the wikileaks dumps of that service, followed by firings. Data wants to be naked and exposed.
Why would such a service hold leak worthy data?
Actually wikileaks was an unthought player. More likely (if at all) someone who sells data or just likes to watch things burn. It was a bit knee jerk on my part, as I've become much more reluctant to spread my data footprint. If the data isn't there, it can't be stolen.
I'm working on an encrypted chat system in JS, I'd lend my code and skills to such an effort.
I would like to find (or create) a service where we can talk about the real dirt at companies. Encouraging honest accounts without disparagment is a hard balance. Building an identity and reputation system where reviews are trustworthy is hard, especially if you also want anonymity.
Like many people, I've worked at places with big problems. In cases where friends apply, I strive to give an honest account of my experience. Different people can tolerate different levels and kinds of crazy. In most cases, I still know people at such companies. I want to offer constructive criticism in a public setting, because I think this could help companies and people can change for the better. I want them to find a way to succeed.
